Transsexuality isn't about being gay. That's a different thing. Gay's fine, but it's different.
In repression (male mode), we're as het as the next dude, and are usually attracted to females. We date girls, marry women, have families. We are typically faithful and good providers.
In transition, our bodies and emotions change. Others begin to see us differently. All that can gradually impact sexual orientation.
I suppose you could term an M2F transsexual lesbian if, after transition, she still had a sexual preference for women. But that gets very confusing (please see above aversion to tags). More.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
