When I discovered I was trans. Because I didn't stop being attracted to women.

    did you have any inkling or awareness of feeling like your attraction to women was "same-sex" before you properly discovered you were trans, or was this really the first time it came to your attention?

    So, I always came out with the line: "I'm actually a hot lesbian trapped in the body of a lumberjack" as a sort of joke (or so I thought). I also pretty much only had bisexual girlfriends, which I put down to being more politically left leaning and not particularly masculine.

    I have always had a sort of disconnect when it came to exclusively hetro women. I always saw them as "not for me, definitely not interested in me". When they actually took the initiative, they seemed to expect me to behave in a way that I wasn't at all comfortable with. I just put it down to being weird and awkward.
