    If you were born the opposite gender that you are? Some people will just do what they are expected to I know. What do you guys think, guys, as much as you love women, if you were born one would you become part of the gay community and still lust over them? Maybe I should rephrase it. If you woke up tomorrow in the body of someone of the opposite gender, would you still live your life dating and going after the same sex you already prefer?

    -is this a question for girls too?-

    Well, you're attracted to what you're attracted to. I've always thought that society conditions us to prefer one sex over the other. I'm used to being attracted to the idea of masculinity, but I've experienced a few occasions where I've forced myself to look past that convention and felt a physical attraction to a woman. *shrugs* But that's just me.

    Yeah its a general question. I asked guys specifically because its a harder question for them. Girls would most likely be okay with being gay.
     
    I guess the question is already answered due to myself being gay, but if I were the opposite gender...well, I actually don't know. I wouldn't know myself if I wasn't gay, it's a totally different concept.
     
    I suppose I might be, because I can't stand a lot of girls. xD;

    I do tend to just go with the flow, though, so I'm not sure.

    This begs the question though, if I were born a boy, would I be an entirely different person with different opinions on the opposite and same sex? =/
     
    Since I'm a male I'd probably have to go with yes, but if I was a female I'd probably have a completly different point of view so I dunno.
     
    Hmm.. I think I'd swing both ways, regardless of my gender.

    That being the case, I didn't have to think too hard for my answer. xD;

    No.
     
    Jesus Christ.
    What a stupid question.

    I do not know.
    I am not sad enough to have ever thought about it.

    You dont have to be sad to ask the question. Just curious.

    Anyway, maybe I should rephrase it. If you woke up tomorrow in the body of someone of the opposite gender, would you still live your life dating and going after the same sex you already prefer?
     
    It depends on my feelings, more than anything I'd only be attracted to somebody based more on my experiences and how well I know my personality rather than just going by the instincts of my own gender. Despite that, I like men and have never been properly attracted to women, that's not anything unusual for me. Being the other gender is an improbable case scenario in my life, though if I were in love with a man already and just so happened to wake up as a male myself, I wouldn't let that stop me loving the person who I've cherished for so long.
     
    I would probably go after girls if I was a dude because it's logical and Kevin Rudd would approve.
     
    Even if I had a different body with different parts producing different ratios of hormones which could affect my brain chemistry I don't think I'd change as a person. I'm already past puberty so even if estrogen and testosterone could affect my body's development, and in some weird way affect who I found attractive, it's too late for me. I'm also not one to let old fashioned social conventions stop me.
     
    Depends...

    Are you talking in terms of sexual feelings or are you talking about someone I can love?

    For the former, I would most probably become a lesbian. For the latter, I don't know... I can just love them if I fall in love, and then I'll forget about gender stuffs...

    Of course I'd be happy, why not?
    Oh, wait. If I were born a guy, most likely I would just live and see whether I like girls or boys. I wouldn't know till it happens. But if I woke up as a guy, I'd freak, then see if I could still live the way I did...so yeah, I might be gay.
     
    This is a difficult one to think about. XD

    I would presume that since I am currently male and an admirer of feminine beauty, I would remain as such even if I did, indeed, become a woman. However, hormones are a hard thing to account for. Will my new configuration's levels of estrogen have an adverse effect on my sexual preferences? At the moment, I cannot possibly fathom ever being attracted to masculinity, but would I feel the same way whilst donning ovaries? who can say? At the very least, I can presume that I will be bisexual. XD
     
    Pretty much what Timbjerr said.

    I'm attracted to women as a straight-male, but this is only from testosterone conditioning and the areas said hormones are targeted in my brain. If my store of testosterone were somehow switched to estrogen, and it took it's own track through my brain, then yeah, I suppose I'd start becoming attracted to men whether I wanted to or not. Of course, this only counts if we're speaking on a lusty-love kind of situation. I feel you could learn to adore and love either gender if the person is right, without necessarily being gay or straight.

    Lust =/= Love, necessarily.
