No, you aren't gay, you are probably just a little bit sexually fluid, meaning primarily gynephilic (attracted to women) but also attracted to feminine males with enough female-like features. Its a lot more common than people think, and it makes people uncomfortable to confront. I'm a trans woman with many gay friends and who spends a lot of time around gay men. None of them have EVER expressed sexual interest in me, and why would they? They are not attracted to femininity AT ALL, they like men that look like men. So if its "gay" to like trans women then why dont actual, out-and-proud gay men have any interest in us? However, i live in a pretty rough city and i get hit on by seemingly "straight" men with girlfriends and baby mommas ALL THE TIME. A lot of the times they will even tell me they know what's up, but if anyone were to ask them about why they were trying to talk to the trans person they would most likely try to play it off like they didnt know (and they would probably get away with this because 1.) they do not read as gay at all and they have a history of being with real women [because they are very much so attracted to real women as well]) and 2.) i think that acknowledging sexual fluidity in otherwise "straight" men makes people uncomfortable, because most straight men are afraid of being perceived as gay or "less of a man" (the irony being that lots of "straight" men are actually fluid. Trust me, i know.) So i think a lot of straight men feel the need to reassure themselves and everyone around them that THEY aren't fluid. In a perfect world, straight men with no fluidity would simply be able to acknowledge that some of their friends are attracted to trans but they they themselves aren't without feeling like their manhood is somehow being threatened.

Being attracted to a trans women is a heterosexual attraction not a gay .

[tyronemercer]

Yeah that sh!t is gay. People need to stop lying to themselves.

Moreso gynandromorphophilic, which is gay with extra steps.
If you think its not gay you likely view women only by sexual registers, (boobs, hair, makeup, clothes, nails, heels etc) so it doesn't feel gay because you can't define women outside of those chariteristics. Which is largely due to misogynistic view and porn exposure

I think that trans-attracted men are indeed gay, & there is nothing wrong with being gay. I'm not saying this out of any transphobic belief that "transgender women are men". I don't believe that. Rather, I'm saying it because I recognize the difference between gender & sex with the former being social construct and the latter being natural. By that standard, a transwoman is still male. By definition, a male on male attraction is a homosexual attraction. I wouldn't classify a same-sex attraction as heterosexual in nature.

You’re attracted to a feminine man, so yes, you’re gay. And that's OK.

So did you just reduce trans attraction down to a feeling? Wow!!!
