Are you really trans (post-op), or are you just a cross-dresser?

I've already pissed off most people here already.

Stop self-deprecating and don't care so much about the opinion of keyboard warriors on the internet.

    just wrote an article that explains what I mean.)

    I don't feel like you explained anything for me, except this bit

    and to those of us, like me, who have a religious obligation to abstinence, and thus: refuse to have sex until marriage.

    Made me curious if your religion happens to hate homosexuals. Do you want to be a woman because then your homosexual desires wouldn't be a sin?

      You ever worry that one day you'll look back on this as a fad? Like Vanns in the 90s or eating Tide Pods?

      That's not why; I'm only romantically interested in women (though, it doesn't matter if they're trans, since I don't care about genitals).

      So you consider yourself a lesbian?

        I think that makes you a gynosexual not a lesbian.

        My definition of cross-dressing includes those who always present themselves as the opposite gender. Regardless, thank you for your answer.

          It's similar to meat-eater. People who only eat meat are meat-eaters. People who only eat meat 2 days a year, can still be referred to as meat-eaters.
