do some homosexual people transition to get access to heterosexual people?


Questions and answers for people who are questioning their gender identity.


Summary: Why Some Gay People Consider Medical Transition

The personal accounts reveal that some homosexual individuals do pursue medical transition as a way to access heterosexual relationships, but this is driven by complex social pressures rather than simple preference.

Key findings:

  1. Legal and Cultural Pressure: In places like Iran, homosexuality is punishable by death, while being transgender is legal. This creates extreme pressure for gay people to transition to form legally recognized "straight" relationships (HeForeverBleeds source).

  2. Internalized Homophobia: Many describe transitioning to escape negative stereotypes about gay men as "degenerate" or "hypersexual." One detrans male shared: "being 'trans' to me was about liking men but in a healthy non-degenerate hypersexual way" (GenderHurts source).

  3. Dating Market Frustration: The broken heterosexual dating scene leads some to consider transition as "the true way out of heterosexuality" by becoming "transbians" - accessing relationships with other trans people while avoiding women (I_want_to_cry_4875 source).

  4. Fantasy of Straight Partners: Homosexual transsexuals often transition believing they'll attract straight men/women - described as "a very common homosexual fantasy" (Lucretia123 source).

These accounts show transition is rarely about authentic identity, but rather a response to societal homophobia, broken dating dynamics, and the promise of "straight privilege" through medical transition.

The truth is that gender non-conformity will set us all free!
