I've been dating my boyfriend 9 months. He's transgender, and I knew him before he started his transition. I'm 100% sure that I'm straight, but people try to tell me that dating someone with female anatomy means that I must at least be bisexual. I say no. He's still a boy no matter what his body is like. I know I'm not attracted to chicks, so I wish that people would get off my back about it. Straight girls can date transboys, they just have to be open-minded.
People still try to TELL me I'm bisexual. It isn't as bad as when we first started dating, but it still happens sometimes.

Do you think it's possible to love somebody regardless of the fact that their sex (not gender) isn't what you dig?
How can people think they have the right to TELL me my sexuality?

Love is not a matter of biological sex, gender, etc. It's about your individual feelings for one another. If your connection is strong, then who's to say it's not love? And people who "have the right to tell you your sexuality" are just ignorant to what's different; they do not see that there is more in this world than the mainstream.

Do whatever it takes to make YOU happy. Period.

Thank you for the sense making. smile

Yeah. Labels are kind of the
jerk way of grouping people
into tiny little things that honestly
don't matter. If you love them, you
love them. There is nothing else
really to it. Flesh is flesh, but love,
that's something else entirely. That's
a place where there are no labels. There
are no expectations or bars set beyond
reach. There are no standards or VIP
lists, classes or statures.

:3 I know this is just reiterating the previous
statement. But I agree. Love is love. And it
is colorful, beautiful and accepting. As for
people, they are just miserable. Let them
talk. They need labels so their small brains
can comprehend the special thing you have
going for you.

Yeah no I don't think your bi. Because your partner feels that they are male, and regardless of anatomy, this is how they feel, and you are dating the male them not the female them.

My gf is straight and she's dating me. She is not bisexual in the least bit. She cares about my mind and how I think. I'm a complete male in my head and that's honestly what she cares about. It's fine to date someone whose sex isn't what you like as long as the gender is something you dig. Gender isn't binary.

These people have no right to tell you your sexual orientation. That is seriously offensive and stupid. You are how you are and that's final. ******** what people have to say.
