Not really because i have an attraction to certain guys (very rare) but a definite attraction to you know what 😉(thanks to erotic hypnosis or self-discovery??). Right now I have a stronger attraction to women because my brain sees myself as male at some biological level I guess, so being with a guy as a guy is just not right for me. But as soon as I place myself as a female in the relationship, immediately my romantic attraction to guys easily surpasses my attraction to women. I have read that other trans women had a similar issue and one of the many things that HRT did was lower their sex drive to women or completely switch it towards men. Not all of them went through such a complete change, as some trans women remained attracted to women.
From a quick google search:
"Several studies suggest that changes in sexual orientation among trans people are quite common. Among 115
Dutch participants, for example, 33% of trans women and 22% of trans men reported experiencing changes in their sexual attractions. Almost identical results were found in a
2005 study of 232 U.S. trans women who had undergone surgical and hormonal transition, where 43% reported significant shifts in their sexual orientation (of 2+ points along the 7-point Kinsey scale).
Most of these changes include shifts from exclusive attraction to one gender pre-transition toward some level of bisexuality post-transition, as was the case with Toby, who declined to share his last name. But some people claim almost complete reversal of their sexual orientation. For example, 13% of the trans women in the
2005 study switched from exclusive or primary attraction to women to exclusive or primary attraction to men (there were no such drastic changes among those who were initially attracted to men). Of the trans men in the
2013 study who were initially attracted to either men or women, 6-7% experienced a complete reversal.
Why these changes happen is less clear, and like many things in psychology, this may be a question with several correct answers.
Although we tend to think of sexual orientation as something fixed at birth (determined by our genes and prenatal hormone exposure) and usually unchangeable thereafter, it is undoubtedly fluid to some extent, so shifts in attraction could be no different from those that happen to many cisgender folks as well.
Research with cisgender populations finds that almost 20% of young adult women and 5% of men report changes in their attractions over a 5-year period. But these general population numbers are much lower than those found in trans populations, suggesting there are likely other factors at play among trans folks.
Perhaps the most obvious candidate is the hormonal changes that trans people undergo as part of their transition. While the exact ways androgens and estrogens influence sexual orientation are not yet understood, most scholars agree that hormones — at least as far as prenatal exposure goes — play an important role. And many trans folks themselves directly link these changes in attractions to the hormones they are taking or suppressing."
eady wrong, because a system cannot be classified properly from within the system) as ABC, there is a tendency to adapt own behaviour to the stereotypical behaviour of type ABC. What in turn might make the things much worse, than they were before.
