Transgender sexuality is the sexuality of transgender people. Transgender people exhibit the full range of possible sexual orientations and interests,〔Tobin HJ (2003). (Sexuality in Transsexual and Transgender Individuals Part I: A Review of the Literature. )〕 including the potential for a lack of sexual attraction.〔Devor H (1997). ''FTM: Female-to-Male Transsexuals in Society.'' Bloomington: Indiana University Press. ISBN 0-253-21259-6〕 ==Sexual orientation labels== Historically, clinicians labeled transsexual people as heterosexual or homosexual relative to their sex assigned at birth.〔Chivers, Meredith L.; Bailey, J. Michael. Sexual Orientation of Female-to-Male Transsexuals: A Comparison of Homosexual and Nonhomosexual Types. Archives of Sexual Behavior〕 Most transsexual people find this offensive, and prefer to define their sexual orientation relative to their gender identity.〔Bagemihl B. Surrogate phonology and transsexual faggotry: A linguistic analogy for uncoupling sexual orientation from gender identity. In ''Queerly Phrased: Language, Gender, and Sexuality''. Anna Livia, Kira Hall (eds.) pp. 380 ff. Oxford University Press ISBN 0-19-510471-4〕 Such a scheme is also illogical viewed from the perspective of describing the orientation of those attracted to transsexual women as women. Thus, a trans man attracted to women is likely to identify as a heterosexual man. Similarly, a heterosexual man who is attracted to women becomes no less heterosexual if one of the women he is attracted to has a transsexual history. To avoid confusion and offense, the terms "gynephilia" and "androphilia" are sometimes used to describe attraction to women and men, respectively. The terms "homosexual" and "heterosexual" are problematic for transgender people who do not identify as male or female. More broadly, terms defining attraction in terms of men and women are often rejected by people attracted to those outside the gender binary. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Transgender sexuality」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
