Oh my god 😭
I can't say I was ever short, but this is kinda totally my case...

very TMI, Miisha loredumpI used to think I was into girls...sorta. From 12 until like 15 years old, I honestly believed that. Not that I was attracted to them, but rather I envied them (I know that now, lol). Still, I felt like liking girls was the "correct" thing to do. My mom sure wanted me to get a gf. Every single guy around me was talking about their attraction to girls. And I just thought I had to...

I asked a couple of them out. Or, I tried to. It never really worked. I think they kinda hated me, cause I was a textbook nerdy incel, lol. Never wore glasses tho...
It was so bad that I was only friends with like one or two girls. And I can't blame them, I was fucking awful at the time...

But then, when I was about 15 years old, I started purposefully building a yaoi collection in my free time. It's a massive folder now, even tho I no longer use it. It was summer and me and my best friend at the time decided to play truth or dare. Playing a cheap CSGO clone on our phones, we decided the winner tops the loser. And well...I lost completely on purpose.

And that was my first time, ever. With a guy, nonetheless. At 15, with my "best friend". It wasn't special, there was no fanfare, it was just a stupid dare we thought would be funny. Today, I know the guy is a bigoted, hateful asshole who's dating a TERF and they both hate my guts for being trans, but it was...an experience.

And after that, I completely gave up on forcing myself to like girls. I finally admitted to myself that I like men and men only. I started being much more comfortable in their presence, I started noticing them more and I started...fantisizing...about them, about sleeping with them.

And ofc, years later I met my lovely boyfriend and I started HRT, meaning the progesterone makes me want nothing more than to be pinned down and take men's cocks, over and over and over again until I can't walk straight 😂

But yeah...I still remember my first time. And I just wish it could've been on HRT already, so that it would have been more special. And I also kinda wish it would've been with a person that doesn't hate my existence :P

Aw what a story.

Edit.: Having such posts around is very uplifting. It's so rare I actually see men being appreciated.

    Wait...rare to see men being appreciated? Have you...been paying attention to any of my posts?? 😂😂😂

    I honestly doubt that there's anyone on Lemmy who loves men as much as I do. Teehee :3

    Honestly...I'm kinda jelly that you got an experience like that, and not just because that's such a juicy situation. That sort of wake-up call just isn't something I ever got. I stumbled around for years, at first not realizing that I wasn't actually "correct," then not being sure if it was actually real. I never got a single opportunity to experience femininity and barely got to explore my attraction to men. Being really into women only made it more difficult, as it helped me keep up the delusion that I was just a basic cishet. If I actually got an opportunity to experiment like that without immediately needing to acknowledge that it wasn't so normal, maybe I could've started my journey of self discovery sooner.

    Then again, I literally admitted that I wanted to fuck my friend and somehow didn't realize I liked him until years later, so maybe it wouldn't have actually helped my clueless ass.

    It was an experience for sure...but not one I'd recommend. The very same person that took my virginity is the same person that pushed me way deeper into the closet when my egg cracked, at 14. And...that hurt more than anything he's done.
    But hey, I still started at 19, which isn't the end of the world? Or at least, that's what I try to tell myself...

    I'm not sure if this is like...tied to femininity? Because gay men exist. They sleep with men. Androphillic enbies exist. They're not men. But I think I get it.

    I'm glad I got this experience. It was an eye-opener and it convinced me that yes, I actually do like men. A lot, lol.
    And, you know? I don't think many people can say they fucked their best friend 😂
    I'm...proud? Not really...

    If that is your wish, I hope you get to experiment with your attraction to men more. I wish you luck 🩷

    It was less so tied to femininity and more so tied to realizing I was queer. It was a gateway to so many things I needed to learn about myself, from being trans to being poly. Breaking the cishet illusion totally changed the game for me, and while it sucks that the process was such a process, I'm happy to know what I know now.

    For the time being, while I do think trying men would be fun, I have little interest in seeking them out. I'm far more attracted to women and femmes, plus I don't have much interest in seeking any relationships with men in particular. I like spending time with women more and don't feel pressured to hang out with guys like I used to. I'm currently content with leaving the possibility open, but I would never go out of my way for it. If it happens it happens.

    Making a platonic relationship intimate is absolutely a vibe. Part of it is making a deep relationship even deeper, and part of it is the thrill of testing that relationship. That said, it is inherently risky, and I know how much those situations can fuck you up.

    Also, 19 is a great age to start. I didn't even think suspect I might be trans until around that age

    I'm glad you're here, girl. All of us. Even tho it doesn't seem that way, we've all made it so far. It's amazing 💜

    I think keeping it as an open possibility is a good idea. It's your choice, in any case!

    Best of luck, lovely person who isn't Jessica ❤️
