when did you realize you were gay??
i was straight for a long time until i dated a masc-presenting enby (masc + neutral terms) and realized i was ok with having boyfriends and dating guys and masc people. now i don’t even know if i like girls so i’ve come full circle or whatever…

DISCLAIMER (in case someone is wondering) No, I have never been sexually abused or anything of the sort. :::
I liked watching wrestling just to see all the muscular guys... Also, in school, I crushed on a few guys.
Though when imagining a family, I always pictured myself with a girl. Seeing myself with a guy was just.. weird and a little bit uncomfortable. I think that was internalized homophobia. When I imagine a "family" now, I definitely see myself with a boyfriend and not a girlfriend. In fact, I find the opposite now, picturing myself with a girl gives me the "yikes, disgusting".
trans guy here, i used to think seeing myself with a guy was also weird until i realized i liked girls. i thought i was gay but i just realized im bi
