Like if you're not attracted to men who were born men but would date a woman who USED to be a man or a man who used to be a woman? Is that called anything? Or is it just a lesbian/straight guy who has exceptions for trans people? OF COURSE I don't mean liking every trans person, like how straight people don't like EVERY person of the opposite gender IN THAT WAY, or how gay people don't like EVERY person of the same person gender in that way. I mean if they're nice, attractive, a good person, and funny. I'm already in a relationship at the moment, so this isn't about asking anyone out! I mean is there a word for this?

Anyone who acknowledges more than the gender binary, and identifies as being attracted to people outside the gender binary, is pansexual, IMO.

Since you're not attracted to males who identify themselves as males and were born biologically male, but you're attracted to trans people and women (who also identify themselves as female and were biologically born as one), I think the more accurate term would be polysexual.

Pansexual = Attracted to any gender (including those outside the norm female and male binary)

Polysexual = Attracted to many genders (including those outside the norm female and male binary), but not all


... well, that's a simplified way to put it, that is :P I'm sure sexuality is a lot more complicated then it appears at first. -nods-
