As someone who realized they are trans and therefore also gay within the past year...

Being trans doesn't necessarily mean you are homosexual. It is kinda gay to be trans though.

No but if you like girls and then realise you are also a girl you can go from "I'm a straight guy" to "I'm a gay woman"

Yeah, in my case though my sexuality flipped, didn't change too much because I'm pan but preferences went 65/35 to 35/65. I also know someone who was gay before, and after, transitioning. And I know many who haven't changed what gender they are attracted to.

Was mainly trying to point out they aren't connected for any cis people who wander.
