Question about sexuality when you are straight

[namesanewnow]

Random and hopefully not rude and offensive to anyone here.

I am a tired parent carer so no offended intended here I am curious

I am married to a man. Like men.

Pretty sure I have a fleeting, intense crush on a female friend when I was still in primary school!

Anyway, I have been watching a TV series and the actress is a Trans Lady.

I really fancy this person and wonder if this means I am not straight after all? Or is it that my brain subconsciously knows she is a biological male?

In saying that, I definitely have a bit of a crush on Salma Hayek and feel intensely embarrassed about it because I feel very self conscious if I see her on telly!

AKA bisexual

Could be bi! Welcome
I respect the opinion of people further upthread about not needing to label yourself, and that is an okay attitude to have, but just wanted to chime in and say it is also okay to feel like you want to label yourself! There is no right or wrong way. I'm sure it's not how the other posters on this thread have intended, but just to maybe warn you if you've never come across it - some people get a bit... I don't know, weirdly annoyed at you wanting to label yourself a certain way? Like 'why do you have to make it a Thing' sort of attitude. People have fought for a long time to have their relationships recognised and protected in law, because unfortunately the world around us has not historically been (and unfortunately continues to be) a not wholly positive place if you are anything other than straight. So I just want to reiterate that its okay for this to be a big deal, a medium sized deal, a tiny deal, or not a second thought at all to you! But don't let anyone feel like you are being silly or making a fuss over nothing for taking time to think about it.

I class myself as straight , married to a man and never had any inclination to lay my hands on a woman or have had any experience of being with a woman sexually .
However , I have often wondered if a women / woman relationship would be more intense and fulfilling because
You'd know what makes them tick , and the relationship would be more on an even keel .
I have met women who I admire and think it would be an amazing relationship to be in if you were both gay . A fab friendship with added benefits I guess .

You'd know what makes them tick

Would you? That's a personality thing more than a sex thing. I have little idea what makes some women tick.

Not wanting to derail, but I wouldn't remotely trust anything associated with Kinsey one tiny bit.

He was a disgusting child abusing monster who supposedly studied the 'sexual response' of little children in ways and with beliefs which are far too vile to mention here, loosely dressed up as 'science'. Even hearing or reading his name makes me feel sick.

I mentioned Kinsey in good faith from the little l knew. I was not aware of this and apologise for citing it.
