Yeah I really don't want to have to lie to my doctor and say I'm into men to get my estrogen
"sorry boss can't work today, i'm feeling homosexual"
Lol, I've considered calling out for that reason before when my wife's being really cute.
But yeah in the 90s a lot of medical professionals helping trans people still believed that people who are really trans had to meet a bunch of highly gender conforming expectations, including transitioning to heterosexuality. The good news of course was you could lie to your doctor.
