I both dated and slept with biological men until I came out a little over 10 years ago. I've been told by lesbians I'm not a "true lesbian". When I tell people I'm attracted to male-identified butches and trans men then I really get looks like, "Why don't you just date men?"
*shakes head* I love who I love.
Finding and being comfortable in the identity of "queer femme" took time. I still accept the blanket term of "lesbian" just for the sake or argument avoidance but I know fully who I am and who I'm attracted to.
I think eventually humanity will move into a place where gender isn't as much the consideration it is now. It's an evolutionary process. Right now, there's too much "us versus them" across the board.
