If you were born the opposite gender... - Empty Closets - A safe online community for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered people coming out

Ghostly · 22nd Aug 2011, 04:32 PM

If you were born opposite of the gender you were actually born or are, would you feel straight? or feel different about things from that point of view? (lol sorry if I'm not making much sense here :s) So if you were not the gender you are now would you be straight or feel you might be attracted to the same gender again?

So for example: If I was born female, I think I'd probably be straight since I think I'd still be attracted to boys

Dominoflare · 22nd Aug 2011, 04:34 PM

Well if i was born a guy i'd probably be as bisexual as i am now lol

Hitchhiker · 22nd Aug 2011, 04:44 PM

If I were born a guy I would still like girls I think... boys are just icky!

Veronica · 22nd Aug 2011, 04:45 PM

Don't even get me started about being born the other gender ... *sigh*

Sexual orientation is the least of my concerns

**Mogget** · 22nd Aug 2011, 05:24 PM

I think I'd be a lesbian.

Fairybread · 22nd Aug 2011, 05:34 PM

Um.. Girls?

SaphireMoon · 22nd Aug 2011, 05:38 PM

id still be into girls (by the way i really do wish i had been boen with a female body >.<) lol

Phoenix · 22nd Aug 2011, 05:42 PM

I firmly believe I would be a lesbian if I were a girl.

FruityFascism · 22nd Aug 2011, 05:50 PM

I'm not really sure... There is a whole different set of baggage that comes with being a girl, and I'm not sure how that would have affected me. I think I would still be a homosexual though.

mischa91 · 22nd Aug 2011, 06:01 PM

If i'd been born a guy i would be so gay! I'm pretty sure the guy part of me is very very gay right now

maverick · 22nd Aug 2011, 07:27 PM

Gender aside, I consider myself an equal-opportunity admirer of the human race. However, I prefer the fairer sex though.

kiersten · 22nd Aug 2011, 07:31 PM

I know that if I had been born physically female, I'd still be a lesbian. Sigh, it's really difficult to deal when I think about it...

Vivien · 22nd Aug 2011, 07:31 PM

I would of been a lot happier over the course of my life.. but that can never happen so..

Z3ni · 22nd Aug 2011, 07:34 PM

I'll probably be a tomboy, a slutty tomboy >_> <_<

Wylde · 22nd Aug 2011, 07:52 PM

I'd still be into guys. And I wish I was born the opposite gender, would save me a lot of hassel.

Daydreamer1 · 22nd Aug 2011, 08:33 PM

I'd still probably be pansexual

FloatingPiano · 22nd Aug 2011, 08:45 PM

It really all depends, but if I was born a boy then I think I would be straight, cause most likely I'd still be into girls.

Leif · 22nd Aug 2011, 11:56 PM

I deeply wish I had been born a male. I believe I'd still be bi though, I just have an amazement with the human body, male or female.

Mad Man L · 23rd Aug 2011, 03:46 AM

If I had been born a female, I'd still be a bisexual, but it'd be a lot more complex than just that.

Just Passing · 23rd Aug 2011, 04:00 AM

For some bizarre reason, whether it's for the laughs or not, but I wondered if I'd be born a lesbian as a girl too. Being realistic though, I'd probably straight as a girl, though only because doing things with a girl is unimaginable at this point.
