I have always struggled with this one... Much as I'd like to have been born a female, I know deep down that my brain cannot be truly female, simply because I cannot look at a man and see what in the world would make him attractive to a girl. I know what I think looks handsome; but I see pretty girls with plain, even ugly men - by my standards. I've asked my daughter what it is, and she can't explain it to me. I've seen research that shows that even their taste varies according to their monthly cycle, preferring more masculine features one week and more gentle ones later.

Bryony,

Maybe you're a male lesbian?

I have some comments on your statement of us not marrying lesbians. I'm single, so this is entirely hypothetical, but the type of female I would like to be with is one who is open-minded about gender identities and roles. In other words, someone who sees outside of the male-female binary.
