No Title, Just Confusion

So, before I identified as trans (I came out two years ago when I was away from home and felt safer) I identified as a gold star lesbian. I’ve never once been with a guy, and I’ve never before felt attracted to a guy. But now, I’ve been with my girlfriend for almost two years, and a couple months ago I noticed something. I might like guys now? Like, a very strong maybe? And I know it’s not a bad thing, I’m just confused. How do I tell my girlfriend without her leaving me?

Rather stay female

I’m scared that I’ll end up looking like so many trans guys I’ve seen online.

So many just seem to look like butch lesbians with deep voices. I wish I knew what I would look like post-transition. It’s something that is really putting me off coming out and transitioning…

I would rather stay female then get stuck in that weird in between.

My junk

recently i’ve been involved in a physical relationship with someone i’ve known since i was 6.  she identifies as a lesbian and has said that she doesn’t know if she can talk about my junk as if its hard (wants to use biologically accurate wording).  i hate this and i feel bad for continuing the physical relationship.

(there's a reason why she's an 'ex')

I just gotta get this out. My ex girlfriend identified as a lesbian when we were together and then got upset that I told her it made me uncomfortable. She said she felt I wasn't accepting who she was. It hurt me because I'm not a fucking girl.

Sexual orientation poll?

Guys, those who are willing want to take a poll of sorts? What's your sexual orientation? Trying to know if transmen sexualities are of the same ratios as cismen

transman who is attracted to lesbians?

I have just come out as trans to everyone and now I feel like I have no identity. Being a lesbian is all I’ve ever known and now I am terrified that I am going to be viewed as straight. I am not attracted to straight girls, I am attracted to queer girls, but yet I know I want to be male. What does this make me? What am I? I am so confused right now.

Don’t worry too much. If you are a transman who likes lesbians, there might as well be lesbians who like transmen :) -mrsparklebutt 

Not quite the answer you’re looking for, but here’s my answer: A person. A perfectly normal human being. -leofelixjustice 

Dear Ghost, gender identity and sexual identity are two completely different things. It is perfectly ok for you to identify as a transgender male and as a lesbian. IT IS YOUR IDENTITY not anyone else’s. OWN IT! -dakinlikesbacon 

lesbian dating a transman?

A lesbian friend started to date a trans guy and it honestly bothers me. She strongly hangs to her lesbian identity and constantly talks about helping him get on T. She also whines about how there are always a lot of straight girlfriends of transmen. i have never said anything to her about it. I really don’t want her to be a “I only date women and trans men.” type. I find it to be extremly transphobic to both men and women.

i'm a transman who is attracted to lesbians

I have just come out as trans to everyone and now I feel like I have no identity. Being a lesbian is all I’ve ever known and now I am terrified that I am going to be viewed as straight.

afraid to come out to best friend

How will i ever come out to my best of best friend ? We've known each other for like our whole lives, like almost ''literally'' i'd known him since when i was 4 years old, total 14 years. However i feel like we had this barrier thing between us, i wasn't really able to tell him anything. I even came out easily to my two other best friend of 7 years and 4 years easily, they seems to be more easy to come out to.

How long am i gonna be keep him in the dark? i've already started transition and it will come one day which he will ask questions, how am i suppose to answer them, i don't want things to be awkward between us. It feels like if i ever come out to him, my whole life would change, things would probably never be the same again.

Yes, i am a boy by birth. My best friends have still been treating my like a boy, i don't need them to treat me like a girl, i just want them to treat me as a normal human being, but not as a boy ! It's even weirder when i am talking to him about relationship, and how much i hope i would get a girlfriend soon, and yes i'm a lesb-trans. He would say like i was more handsome when i cut my hair, and i'd be like, no... but i was never able to tell him the reason.

We go a long way back... and he have totally no clue that i am a trans because i was never girly in anyway, probably because i see myself as a tomboyish girl ( trans ) + lesb ,  damm that's even confusing when i start to think about it, well we all know there's no fixed gender/expressions/etc
This could go on forever ~

Any FTMs out there have gone through something like that ? with your best friend.

To all the Melissa and James' out there !

Hello! I'm not a transman

just a friendly lesbian here. 
I just want to say that you guys are wonderful. 
I can't imagine what it must feel like to be in this situation and I would like to apologise on the behalf of all of the bigoted and ignorant people who ever judged or treated you badly because of who you are. 

I admire your courage and resilience to stay strong. 
Trans issues are often swept under the rug in the LGBT community and support structures are often not in place for those who need it. 

Good luck and jiayou! 
Just know that there are people out there were are cheering on for you, even though the moral support can only translate to so little.
