I suppose I will start things off. How did you come to realize you were a lesbian? (self.ask_lesbians)

For me, my mother told me she knew I was attracted to women since I was 3 or 4 years old because of the way I reacted to lady wrestlers on the television.

My orientation was never a mystery, but learning I was a lesbian was connected to understanding my gender. I did have a brief relationship involving a man after transition, but I broke it off after I realized that I did not like him, or men in general, the way I liked women.

Now I'm happily married.

What's your story?

My story is very similar to yours, I was AMAB and have been living as a woman fully for the last 2 years. While I was still living as a male and in denial about being a transwoman I used to wish I was just a gay man instead of trans, and I tried hard to get into guys but I just couldn't, it never felt right.

When I transitioned and started to think of myself as a gay woman though, suddenly that label felt like it fit me perfectly! I'm now proud and sure of my gayness as a woman loving a woman! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
