My partner is concerned that I'm going to suddenly start being attracted to men once I start on the trans-mission fluid. Apparently she keeps reading Reddit posts about people who's sexual orientation changes after they start hormones. How common is this? I can't personally think of a word in which I would be attracted to men. Honestly it kinda crosses me out. I did go through a period where I decided to see if I was bisexual and slept with a couple of dudes, but I found the experience really off-putting. Have any of you ladies experienced a switch in sexual orientation? If so, from what to what?

My (30m) SO (29f) started liking girls a lot more after starting E. We have found ways to enjoy it. She isn't turned off to men entirely, she just has a strong preference that wasn't there before. Communication and care will go a long way with making you both happy, and you will be a different person, mentally, when Estrogen or Testosterone start making some descissions in your brain that you didn't realize the previous dominant hormone was making before.
