Sexuality (-) 

I've been having a lot of trouble with my sexuality recently. HRT has totally changed my relationship with sex, and rediscovering myself sexually has been really hard. I need to learn who this new version of me is as a sexual being, and I've been feeling really distant from my sexual side as a result. Any tips from people with more feminine sex drives would be really appreciated, cuz for the first time in my life I'm at a loss for how to be sexual as myself

@ShibaSass I've always had a very feminine sex drive, and it's made things challenging for me in the past, but way easier Now.
Probably helps that I've always had a Preference for Nonbinary or genderqueer or trans folks. Like, way before that was a recognized thing, in a lot of cases and way before I was ready to process that kinda stuff.

The upside is that the softness of sexual contact, the lead-up, and the psychological aspects of sexuality become more important. Sensual touch, sexy talk, playfulness, and well, Love are all more important to the feminine sexual response.

I've had sex with friends before, during and After HRT. I've been with cis women, PCOS women, Transguys... Gender and sexuality are a Spectrum and your hormonal state does a LOT more than most folks realize. That, along with the paradigm shift from one to the other can really reshape your sexuality entirely.

I'll jump from a power top masculine headspace from a day spent working on a car, to "Cool Aunt" because one of my younger friends just had an awkward sexual encounter and needs help. I'm not saying it's Easy, I guess I'm just glad I'm a shapeshifter Now, it used to be a curse.
