Question
Hi,

I have seen number of people who are basically male biologically but exhibit female behaviours. I know a person who walks, talks, acts like females. He says that he is sexually attracted to men. In the similiar way, I was wondering is it possible for a person who is biologically female but exhibit male behaviour and get attracted to female.

Regards

Hi Nain
 There is no such thing as 100% male or female.  Look at this

 Male____________________MIDDLE_____________________Female

We all lie someplace in between.  Both sexes secrete both male and female hormones.  More male then female you are to the left and more female then male you are to the right. Physically you are one or the other.  These hormonal differences do not determine homosexuality though.
I had identical twin classmates in high school.  One was very effeminate and one was very masculine but both were heterosexual
