Adjust, interpret, modify, and generally bridge the gaps. I have a couple of questions which I don't believe you have addressed in your series. That, I think, is mostly an issue of internalized homophobia. Our society reeks with narrow attitudes about homosecuality, and because it is a male dominated society, the worst crime is male homosexuality. Indeed, lesbianism is considered a titilation for many heterosexual men.
Homosexual men are a threat and an terror.
This is internalized by almost everyone to some degree, because we are all steeped in it culturally. The transsexual is therefore put in a place where they are assaulted from within and from without, with ideas about gender and sex and orientation all muddled and full of bigotry and fear. Since sexual orientation is independant of gender identity, some heterosexual women, trapped in male bodies, will attempt to conform to the sexuality socially approved to the shape of their bodies, whether they are comfortable with it or not. They trying desperately to avoid being considered the 'evil of evils', homosexual men. After transition, they realize, sometimes with a start, that they no longer have to play a role, and no longer have to avoid what is for them heterosexual relationships.
