If sexuality was about gender expression then what's stopping gays from not liking GNC people of the opposite sex that don't identify as trans?

When I see an attractive woman, then as you might expect from a straight man, it tends to elicit some form of positive mental cascade of sexual thoughts.

But when I see a tranny, it's the opposite. Even if they've made themselves as unmistakably feminine as possible, it's no good. Every fiber of my being is sickened and repelled at even the most vague notion of intimacy with them.

So assuming my experience is pretty average for a man, then I'm guessing it's not just the aesthetic and performative traits of a woman that men are attracted to, it's also the knowledge that she is a real woman. You gotta check all those boxes or we just aren't interested. I imagine it's similar for other sexes and orientations.

I used to do that all the time also. That's just the male sex drive / biological imperative. Makes it hard for men and women to be friends. Also I understand why some f2m and even some lesbians want to avoid that attention. It might be cool if only attractive awesome people eyefucked you, but it's not...

Women have issues with this too. They don't have the reputation for it, but they absolutely do it too.
