    This is a bit of a gender issue and a bit of a sexuality issue, but I decided to just post it here.
    Let me clarify that I have never so much as kissed or dated anyone, nor do I plan on doing so soon.
    So, I know that I am attracted to women. At this point, to me, it is nearly indisputable that I am attracted to women both romantically and sexually. But with men, it's a bit more complicated. I am absolutely repelled by the idea of having sex with a man- that is, if, and only if, I picture myself as a woman. If I picture myself as a man, then suddenly it feels right; and while imagining that I am a man, I am still attracted to women. So I suppose what I mean to say is that in my mind, if I am a man then I'm bisexual and if I'm a woman I'm lesbian. Does this mean anything and does anyone else get this? It's all just so confusing to me.

    I can't entirely relate since I'm not sexually attracted to anyone, but when I still thought I was a girl I could only really imagine being in a romantic relationship with girls. Now that I've come to terms with being trans, though, I can imagine being with men and women. I think what it was was that I didn't want to be in a relationship with a guy as a woman, but I could be in a relationship with a guy as a guy. Idk if that makes sense.

    If you're smart enough to say something like that you are probably smart enough to be right also. I think I can identify, although it's different boundaries that are affected. The things that happen in my imagination are imaginative.

    Im would imagine myself as a women if im thinking of having intercourse with a male but in all honesty, i would be fine being male in a mam or maf relationship. Its completely normal to be thinking the way you are for both straight and lgbt people
