    I’m straight and attracted to women. That means whatever I fuck is a women regardless of their genitals.

      This. Tbh this shit just confirms my attraction to women.

      My cis-genderness on the other hand…

        i get extremely repulsed if i was attracted to someone but find out they were born with a penis. Does that make me transphobic?

            He said “find out they were born with a penis”, not “find out they have a penis”. So yeah, transphobic.

              Hm, good point. What exactly bothers you about a hot chick with a pussy but that was born with a cock, ciko22i3?

                The fact there was a cock growing there at some point. The body is male, i couldnt get myself to sleep with that person. I’m fine with them being around as a friend/neighbour or whatever role they fill, but i couldn’t form any real romantic relationship if i know the person was born with a penis.

      No. These are males (gender) presenting as feminine (presentation). Often this presentation breaks - will they have a female voice? Attitude and personality?

      And if you were attracted to them… Yes, you’re attracted to a man*

      But being gay or bisexual or any sexuality is a spectrum. You can be bisexual, if you choose to use that label, and attracted almost entirely to women, and then the rare man. Or be attracted to all genders but still only choose to have sex with certain genders.

      I just came across someone who said they were attracted to a picture of a bear (hair man). And someone said “hey, you’re not straight” and they replied: “Im only attracted to this man, here, online, and I’m not having sex with anyone. So I’d rather claim to be straight.”

      In this case I think sexuality is a process. Maybe they will end up accepting their attraction and acting on it, maybe they won’t. And either fork in the road would lead to a great life.

        Is that like the consensus among scholars on the internet? Cause I have been thinking about it the same way as that other person: I am attracted to feminine traits, so I am straight.
        Not that I mind at all if I’m bi or not, I am just trying to find myself so to speak. The thing for me is that if I just think of myself as bi, it feels like the easy answer. Like using bi as an umbrella term or like that meme “that’s right in goes in the square hole”. Like if you don’t fit anywhere else you fall back to being bi? Feels like a bit of a cop out answer to me.
        But then maybe I really am bi. This thing is hard man.

          No its not the consensus. Thats just what I’m thinking. Hey the labels are there to help you. Don’t tire yourself out over it, take the simple answer and then have fun.

      There is this person I follow on social media for perfectly SFW reasons (that’s a lie), and at first, I thought, “femboy hot,” but then I learnt that she’s a woman, and although she’s still hot, it’s a different kind of hot. Still following her, though.

      When I see these uber cute images I just kinda imagine a real human in my mind and they come out looking my age (mid twenties). As a fan of people playing with their gender and presentation and posting pictures of it, though, the youngest looking person Ive seen is 35… So all of those 20 year olds better keep taking care of themselves.

      Cartoons have missing features, so it leaves room for your own interpretation of it. Isn’t it wonderful?

          I totally understand this, because we often attribute features that are either androgynous or culturally considered feminine (but especially androgynous features) with prepubescence. So you’ve got the rounded faces and lack of secondary sex characteristics that we would associate with older people, plus fashion that could easily be considered “younger,” and despite probably being intended to be 20 or so, they look much younger.

          As somebody who’s got that scruffy white Jesus look going on but doesn’t have a square jawline and often wears hoodies, I’ve more than once been mistaken for a high school/college student - even by high school students no less - despite being in my 30s. Being hit on by college kids almost 10 years younger than you is an awkward experience I would not wish on anyone. As is having your mom be mistaken for your grandmother.

              Did you know that when trans people go through second puberty, which many do in their 20s, they often take up teenage aspects of their chosen gender they missed out on? So things like wrist bands and denim overalls. Very oversized sweaters are also a trans staple when you’re not sure how you feel about your body. On the small frames, you’ve just discovered the fact that there’s actually a fair bit of fatphobia in femboy culture. As for the round faces, well you see, this is a cartoon and that is a particular art style people often use.

                  I literally have trans friends in their 30s who still dress exactly like this.

                  Edit: Fuck, even I’ve got a pair of overalls and sometimes wear them with my hair up in pigtails ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

              I think that’s dumb and they all very obviously look like they’re in their 20s 🤷‍♀️.

      I think you interpreting the characters in the image says more about you than it says about the artist tbh

      I’m guessing you have some microbiology training?

      I want to coin the term facultative bisexual. You prefer the opposite gender but in their absence you are comfortable with someone of your gender.

      If only there was some kind of like, sexuality spectrum, with a label for people who might be into the same gender, or at least people on the boundary lines, some of the time
