I am mostly straight. I love women, no matter how I am dressed. Occasionally I will play with a guy but unless the guy is really feminine I will not want to kiss them. I find gurls sexy but they are not my first pick.

Having read and recorded many hundreds of comments by those in all parts of the TG spectrum (See my more than 75 published blogs). I had first come up with some 85+ percent as hetero and the rest BI or Gay. However I noticed a good number who over the years gravitated to BI as they spent more time cross dressing. So the best guess now is roughly 80% straight and about 15% BI with a small percent gay. Also found that the majority of gay men resent the CD community as, after all, they are attracted to their own.

Straight.
Almost entirely straight, I am not against pushing the boundaries but only if my wife is involved.
It's a hard question for me, because I consider myself straight, but in imagination or looking at the pictures and movies, I also get turned on by men in female clothes, but only if they look more feminine, basically a lady with a penis, not a usual masculan type of man.
add me to those heterosexual males whose sexual orientation does not change whether en femme or not...I suspect that one of the reasons I enjoy crossdressing is that the female personna I create maybe the idealized version of a woman I would love to be intimate with...I suspect that there are others out there who may feel the same...now I want to be clear here..I am not saying I want to make love to myself, I want to be intimate with the idealized female I see in the mirror...so much for psychologyl 101...:heehee:
I am straight whether drab or dressed. I love women, always have, and I suspect my desire to femulate is connected to that. It has no effect on my sexuality.
I am 100% sure that I cannot be romantically involved with men, only women. However, I thought that I might be bisexual since sexually I have fantasized about being the woman in the sexual act (my partner is a man), but recently I had the opportunity to have sexual intercourse with a man while dressed, and I only felt disgust, it is something that belongs exclusively to my fantasies, and not something that I would like to experiment in real life, so maybe I could say I am completely straight.
I think I am straight.
I have only been out with women/girls. Love them.
Guys are hard, lumpy, hairy(YUCK) and usually not very nice.
But to tell the truth when I fantasize that I am female, I have wondered what it would be like to be the girl with a guy.
I just do not have the plumbing...so I have never been there.
If I could pass I bet I would try it at least.
If I was a girl I know I would at least be with a guy because I would love to have children.
So am I straight?
Confused Prene
I'd hitchhike up to Seattle, set myself on fire and jump off the Space Needle before even considering doing something with a guy.
"the lady doth protest too much methinks."
DLW, that's how it comes across...
Not me....:)
I was going to respond to the other thread and didn't. Then when I saw this thread, I thought I would respond with basically the same response that I didn't post on the other thread. Then I thought about it and decided not to......so there you go!
Totally straight, but dead below the waist, so I do not know if my opinion matters. Males and male things I find very boring. Love being around women.
100% straight married to beautiful wife no desire to be with men. This also applies when I am dressed expressing my feminine side.
ok I will bite....I am Bi....boys, girls, trans, whatever LOL.... its all love xoxo
Paint me with a STRAIGHT brush, I only love to look and FEEL like a woman. I do play golf with men though.
Straight... for all practical purposes! Actually I can identify with Valery L's remark, except that I've never had (nor looked for) an "opportunity" to have sex with a man in real life. But I hope to say more about that detail in a separate, longer post.
emotionally Im straight
physically im straight
But my fantasies are getting pretty gay.
Straight, but when dressed like to take the role of the woman in bed.
Not my case, absolutely. En homme absolutely straight (I also have a gf), but as my femme-me, i call myself lesbian.
Straight here, whether dressed or not.
Have never had any attraction towards men.
:)
Very much straight. I love dressing as sexy as I can, and yet I don't wish to attract male attention. It's a conundrum.
I've really already replied to this thread but find myself with a few questions as I've figured out when dressed I love men who love me fem. So many here are straight and love to dress as women and women dress initially to impress men but love that other women like the way they dress. However, most women if you ask them hate crossdressers as my wife does. So are you only dressing to be what? When I first dressed for a man I was nervous and had to put my makeup on right and put on the right lingerie and dress and it was fun. I also find dressing fun for just dressing. However, you dress as a woman and don't you want someone to like you dressed, so if it's not a man and you're straight are you hoping your wife or girl friend likes it as they definitely are in the minority as many married men will tell you. So my feeling, which you may not like, is that too many here do protest as think they might like the attention of a nice man when they are dressed which would be the ultimate compliment to them as a woman.
Lacy many here will say they don't dress for men but I think a lot do just because they have a fantasy about being with a man.
Getting them to admit it will never happen .
Gosh I feel so alone in this thread am I the only gay person in here?
I can't speak for others but personally when I dress I am totally uninterested if it is attractive to anyone , male or female, I do it purely because I enjoy it and for no other reason. I dress as well as I can and present as a 'typical' GG, but trying to gain attention from 'a nice man' couldn't be further from my mind.
Ive been with men in the past am now married and wife knows of my bi past. We fantasies about same sex encounters and when dresses I am my wifes gurl. Being monogomous is tough for me while I explore this lingerie lifestyle as I do wonder what satisfying a male while dressed would be like. But its not worth risking a lovely lively marriage. So I am bi but monogomously a lesbian lol
I'm very straight and so is my wife.:hugs:
Angie
I am straight
Well put, and I'm with you there Carla. :)
dolove...do they? really? So lingerie and minis and heels are a throw down to women? Amazing since I was reminded last night that men are the visual creatures
It's not really fair to say that women dress for other women. Women dress to convey the message we want to other people, men and women, and ourselves. When I'm at work, I dress very casually, because that's the environment in our office. When I have to talk with our legal team, I dress nicer because that's part of their way of seeing power/respect in the office and I don't want to be seen as weaker or less prepared. When my besties and I stay in, we wear pajamas. When we go wine tasting, we often dress nicer to make ourselves feel fancy. When I'm on a first date, I wear what I think will make that guy see me the way I want to be seen by him. Sometimes that's super casual, sometimes it's super put-together, sometimes in between, depending on our vibe and what kind of attraction we have for each other.
While it's true that more women than men are fashion-conscious (and that's definitely not entirely by choice), the same is true of most fashion-conscious men I know. People dress to make a statement, even if that statement is "I don't care how I'm dressed right now".
Oh, and re: the OP... I was effectively straight (95% dated women) before transition, and I'm effectively straight (95% dating men) after transition. Funny what happens when HRT starts changing the way all of your receptors for smell, etc. respond.
When I dress Amy, I am open to any other things if it's safe and legal. Except in Vegas?
Tracii I disagree with your post, why would a guy admit to dressing up like a woman but be ashamed to admit they would like to be with a guy?
I can only speak for myself but dressing has nothing to with anything sexual, its not about Guys, GG's or TG's when I am Becky matters sexual are the last thing on my mind.
You may have missed my point Becky.
They are all supposedly straight right?
Sexually attracted to women only. That makes me biologically hetero. Since I'm somewhere in the "other" category as far as gender identity... possibly part of the non binary crowd, I'm not sure what my sexual attraction to women only is, other than only women I guess....
Been straight all my life. When dresses my interest is still in women.
I don't believe I have Tracii, I do not agree that many at all dress because they have a fantasy about being with a man.
I am saying that if one admits to dressing as a woman its not a lot more 'embarrasing' for want of a better word to admit to being attracted to guys. So i believe that very few people dress because they have a fantasy about being with a man.
I am not confused when it comes to who I want to love. I am just trans and as a transwoman I must be considered gay. No I am not a straight woman but that is because I was not a gay man. Crossdressing I don't believe changes your orientation.
My CD is only attracted to women, even when dressed. He doesn't find men at all attractive. And he dresses in what makes him feel good, and now he considers what I've said I like when we have plans to see each other.
The short answer is: I'm Straight. The long answer is, like Eddie Izzard says, I'm a male lesbian.
I have read lots of posts here where guys say when they are dressed they have urges or fantasies about being with a man.
I wasn't saying all male CDers feel that way.
There are plenty who dress to impress or to the nines as they call it so who are they trying to impress?
I understand wanting to look as feminine as possible and look nice but they also know men are going to be looking and yet the straight CDer is fine with that.
If a man comes up they say it makes them feel vindicated that they pass and it makes them feel good or very womanly.
They would never admit to anyone they know in real life that they enjoyed the attention a man gave them.
I Love it when I get a man's attention and he comes up to say hi but in my case finding a gay man interested in me as a CDer is pretty slim.
As a lifelong CD having strong TG feelings, but not planning on transitioning, I'm straight heterosexual when I'm in male mode, and only interested in women when in full femme mode (that would be lesbian if I were to act on it, but being happily married to an understanding and accepting woman, I have no need or desire to stray).
Now, if I were to transition fully, including GCS, I believe I would be bisexual. I can imagine myself having sex with a man if I were a woman, but cannot imagine myself, and have no desire of, having sex with a man as a man.
I've been away for a few days and this thread really got off track. It was supposed to be about how many members here are straight, not who is gay or transsexual and certainly not about whether women dress for men or other women.
And if you have sex with men only when you are dressed as a woman, you are not "straight", at the very least you are bisexual.
I read somewhere that women dress more sexy when they're ovulating. Could it be the similar for CDs? Those that dress in sexy outfits seem to have the goal of attracting men.
I might have thought I was completely straight when I was young, but now I know I'm not. My first sexual experience was with a boy, and the memory of that eventually led to curiosity - and more encounters with men.
and it's led to more interesting discussion. Did you want to just take a poll? Did you want only heteros to respond?Quote:
