Head Scratcher Apparently, Gay Men Are Becoming Lesbians

By: Amanda Prestigiacomo

Apparently, gay men are becoming lesbians. Or something.

On Tuesday night, Broadly hit the internet with possibly the most confusing headline of all time: “The trans women who become lesbians after years as gay men.”

This left a lot of us scratching our heads, attempting to enter Leftist Fantasy Land to figure out the chronology of a gay man becoming a lesbian. But it’s much more simple than it sounds. Here’s how it works:

Boy is attracted to boys.

Boy attracted to boys believes he’s female and “transitions” into a woman.

Boy who was attracted to boys and thinks he’s a woman suddenly becomes attracted to women.

Boy once attracted to boys who thinks he’s a woman and is now attracted to women now identities as a lesbian transgender woman.

A tale as old as time, really.

The article introduces us to two former gay men who turn into lesbian transgender women.

One of the trans lesbians, who went by the pseudonym Alison for reasons of anonymity, grew up a “slight and slender” gay biological male. When he entered puberty, he “began to struggle with feelings of discomfort in and anxiety about her body—she was terrified of becoming big, muscular, and masculine like her older brother, whom she described as ‘a very s***ty misogynist.'”

“I found guys hot, but I also found a lot of them repellant in terms of personality or maturity,” said Alison. “I was raised by a feminist mother, so almost all dudes and their misogyny were a complete turn-off.”

Allison eventually started to believe that he was a woman and transitioned. It was then that he could finally “‘conceive of women as possible romantic or sexual interests’ without having to stomach her ‘disgust at male heterosexuality’ or having to view herself as complicit in it.'”

Those heterosexuals are the worst. All that procreation and what not? The worst!

The other gay man-turned-trans lesbian went by the name Ann, and like Alison, grew up as a gay biological male before transitioning and becoming attracted to women.

I “pretty much forced myself to be gay” pre-transition, Ann told Broadly. “It might’ve been partly that I was forced to feel that way, or it was that with a man I felt truly feminine, so it’s hard to say for sure.”

As noted by Broadly, Alison and Ann alike feel that “testosterone—and, later, estrogen—may have played a role in her sexual shift, but she recognizes that it probably occurred in conjunction with the social and psychological changes that occurred once she was able to live as a woman.”

“I think now that I’ve transitioned it’s easier for me to date a woman, honestly,” added Ann. “I don’t feel forced into that male role.”

Brave New World.
