If my partner (biological-female) comes out as a trans-man. Wouldn't still being attracted to him make me (biological-male) homosexual?
Please be civil in the comments.

The fact that you framed them as “biological” rather than “assigned” makes me question your motivation for asking.
I was about to say that. Biological-female and biological-male is a form of misgendering that is far too common and an innacurate way of describing someone’s sex or gender.

And there are people who do it maliciously, but it’s also pretty common for well-meaning advocates to do it before they learn. That seems to be OPs case, at least on the surface of it.

Never meant to imply that it was malicious, just that it’s common and should be pointed out more often.
