Male odours...?
So I have been reading about lots of things in relation to gender transition lately, and one of the things which I have read about is hormone therapy since that is what causes the most physical changes towards making one look like a guy (or girl for MtF) and whatnot. However, as someone who dates women but has tried dating men in the past, one of the things that I like a lot more about women than men is their odour. Women have a gentle and sweet odour, whereas men have a much more harsh and musky odour.
So this raises a question which may seem weird to some people and I feel slightly silly asking it, but here it goes anyway.... For those of you who have started hormones and prefer a member of the opposite sex than your target gender for a partner, are you at all repulsed by your new odour? I know that for the most part we rarely smell ourselves since we're around ourselves all the time and our noses adjust, but in the event that you smell something from yourself in an area you normally are not near, does it repulse you at all, do you like your new odour or something else?
