Your poll results might be skewed because a significant portion of AS women identify as trans, so to them, being attracted to a woman would be considered straight.

If thats the case, then wouldnt the women consider identify themselves as male?

Including Asexuality in the actual poll instead of putting it in under other might've been good.... I know I'm not the only one here!

Asexual-romantic here. I want a close, exclusive relationship with someone, but nothing beyond hugging, handholding, innocent stuff. I've always imagined myself as ending up with a guy, but I've had some pretty close connections with other women, so it might be that gender is rather irrelevant in this case.

The labels don't really fit me. Bi, well I'm not a true Kinsey neutral. Gay, well not totally. Definitely not straight. I've been self-iding as 'queer' the last few years (basically bi, but with a strong preference for my own gender).

It would then be vital to compare the results with those of the NT population, including straights, bis, or lesbians. Then it would also be important to note the same statistic with regard to the general population that does not include WP members. Otherwise, the data would be meaningless.

hetero-asexual here.

I do think of myself as male. However, I am only attracted to male-bodied females. I see them as female and they see me as a guy so I still consider that straight.

I really like both, but I can only see myself being in a long-term relationship with a man.
