Be-bop, you have hit on an interesting conundrum for some TSs. They have a period of gender preference anxiety until they "find themselves".

A TS is not necessarily gay nor is it given that they will be attracted to the same gender that they were before transitioning. Some even chuck it all and go bisexual, to make things easier.

We have/had several transsexuals here, four that I'm certain of. One is not even thinking of sex at this time, another is bisexual but in a committed lesbian relationship, the rest I never asked and haven't seen in years.

I know some even experiment with homosexual relations before officially discovering that they were born in the wrong body, so to speak. It's confusing, even for the TS involved, but they have so much on their plate by then that sexual preference tends to take a back seat until they iron out certain other issues first.
