Does it mean nonhomosexual, as in men liking women before transitioning?

I read that article a long time ago but IIRC I believe it is referring to post-transition opposite sex attraction.

Flynt was obviously homosexual, and felt the need to transition because he was ashamed of being homosexual.

Agree that John was a homosexual before transitioning but I don't think John was ashamed of being homosexual. I have seen no evidence that he felt shame.

John's MtF trannssexualism appears to be motivated by autogynephilia as @Pencilvester implied by referencing the paper. John/Brianna would be classed as a nonhomosexual MtF transsexual because he expresses a sex attraction opposite to that of his transitioned sex, namely female.

A homosexual MtF transsexual would be one that identifies as lesbian--John is not in that category and I have seen no evidence that he is sexually attracted to women, despite his claims to be bisexual.

And, yes, this means Frank is at least bi.

Agreed.

Or is this talking about people like Samantha Allen, who after transitioning became 'lesbian', IE still liked women.

Broadly, it addresses that not all persons that identify as MTF transsexuals are in actuality primary transsexuals but rather some have a narcissistic disorder termed autogynephilia where they are literally in erotic love with the female projection of themselves. That is not to say that there is no such thing as transsexualism--there are multiple converging lines of evidence that primary transsexualism is real--but rather that autogynephiles are using transsexualism to mask their narcissistic paraphilia. Most people are more accepting of "I want to transition because I want to relieve my gender dysphoria" versus "I want to transition so that I can actualise the female projection of myself so that I may try and have sex with myself".

Of all the cows on this site, Casey Courtright/"Locria Nyla" is probably the best example of a likely faux transsexual and autogynephile. John Flynt/Brianna Wu is definitely a candidate: his characters--that trace all the way back to his teenage years--are very autogynephilic, i.e. they appear to be idealised projections of a female version of the then John Flynt, complete with large hands and feet.
 
I forget where, but Wu has said in the past that "Natalie O'Brien" is a pseudonym to prevent the real person who does this job being harassed. I suppose this is supposed to explain why Natalie doesn't appear to exist anywhere as a real person. Of course it isn't as though Wu had to advertise the existence of this person at all, pseudonym or not. I always consider the way Wu casually tosses her name about as one of the biggest reasons I tend to believe she isn't a real person.

I don't recall Flynt/Wu claiming that "Natalie O'Brien" was a nom de guerre. But it wasn't long ago that he claimed that Natalie was going to be interviewed by a major news outlet, which would typically involve photos and the use of her real name -- if only she actually existed. Of course, he knew that his ass-patters would soon forget about this interview, along with all of Flynt/Wu's other claims and promises that never materialized.

Ah. A nice and succinct explanation that I comprehended immediately. Thanks.

Transitioning because of some narcissistic desire over ever having actual gender dysphoria. While gender dysphoria is interesting in its own right, autogynephilia seems downright completely bonkers. But, since it also seems to be, from what I am understanding, completely engulfed in a form of narcissism, it does seem to fit how Flynt sees himself.

So, every gender dysphoria MtF who then becomes lesbian, is considered a homosexual MtF after transitioning, since they still retain their sexual attraction to women; but just always felt they were supposed to be born female in the first place.

Yeah, Holiday is definitely an idealized vision of John. She's tall, has a face you can see John wants for himself and takes from his own (small mouth, as an example), is an 'action hero' (which John pretty much sees himself as), and, with the exception of the boobs, hips and waist ratio, is shaped a lot like John is.

And if BriBri ever actually tried riding her abomination of a motorcycle, Johnny Boy and Holiday would have in common that both crashed their overpriced toy.

The existence of genuine MtF transsexuals that self-identify as lesbian (post-transition) is problematic and a high probability is attached to them being autogynephiles rather than primary transsexuals for two broad reasons:
(i) case reports;
(ii) the high improbability of the two (individually improbable) in utero events that lead to homosexuality and transsexualism both occurring to the same fetus.

AFAIK the consensus views on the in utero causes of homosexuality and transsexualism are independent, they are distinct improbable events (so they can be treated as independent events in basic probability). Now consider the arithmetic of the problem:

--In the USA about 1.7% of the adult population identifies as gay or lesbian
--In the USA about 0.3% of the adult population identifies as transsexual (and this figure includes autogynephiles so it is inflated)
--We want natal male transsexuals (0.15%) and lesbians (0.85%) so we halve each propoortion and we get a probability of these independent events both occurring of 0.1275/10000 = .001275% which is very small probability

You can think about it this way: in primary transsexualism in natal males they have a feminized brain and the normative sexual orientation for a female brain is heterosexuality. We would expect a MtF transsexual's brain to be heterosexual "by default". Some further--improbable event--is required to also influence that feminized brain to take a further improbable, non-normative developmental pathway towards homosexuality.

It is of course possible that there are primary MtF transsexuals that identify as lesbian but they are a priori improbable and (near) non-existent in published case reports that are concerned to identify autogynephiles.

Note that many MtF "transtrenders" on this site self-identify as lesbian: this is consistent with the above and corroborates the view that they are not primary transsexuals.

So to bring this back to John Flynt/Brianna Wu: John's/Brianna's pre and post-transition sexual orientation is consistent with primary transsexualism but the balance of his behavior over his documented lifetime suggests autogynephilia. For this reason it isn't clear cut what sort of MtF John is and this is why I would only nominate him as a candidate for autogynephilia rather than as a strong contender.

It's likely the two motives have merged.

We've known John has been a somewhat self hating bisexual before transition, and almost every single reason for becoming a woman has been fetishistic in nature.

The merger of the two means to some degree he has genuinely accepted himself as an actual woman and hence wishes to deny his past as a man as a result, and while a lot of his reasons were grounded and still are influenced by autogynephilia, he's come to make them real by living his fetish driven lie to the point it has become actual truth in many ways.
 
These guys must be HILARIOUS at parties.

It appears some of her supporters are in active revolt. Someone sent me her Patron-only posts from Patreon. Nothing really exciting but kind of interesting.

Hey Tim, just a heads up, if you're ever on a list that you don't want to be on (such as the one you just mentioned) you can block the person who made the list, and that will remove you from said list, even if you unblock them.

This assumes people are born gay and dont become gay due to puberty or something else.
