- I've been having the same feelings. Right now I only find men attractive in
- the abstract, perhaps as a signal that I would be accepted as GG. I don't
- look at a guy and say "He's cute," or "I'd like to be with him." Of course
- I've only been dealing with these feelings for a couple of weeks, so things
- could change. :)

- Absolutely. I have a few pictures on my wall of swimsuit models. I suppose
- it would remove any suspicion that I wasn't "normal." But, I don't want
- to be with the women in the pictures, I want to _be_ them.
-
- The last couple of weeks have been both exhilirating and very confusing.
- I have repressed my femme side for a long time, but it feels so _good_ to
- be able to talk about my feelings.
-
- I have what may be a dumb question. Has anyone noticed if their attraction
- to men increased after they started hormones? Just curious.
-
- *Hugs* to all that want them,
