Does liking shemales make you gay?

[randolph]

It seems to me, that to be gay, you need to be attracted to someone that looks like yourself. Men attracted to men, women attracted to women. If a strait man is attracted to a transexual, its because he perseves her as a women. I doubt that gay men are attracted to transexuals, they want a man.
The fact that transexuals may/not have a penis seems secondary to the perception . This is similar to what Amy said.
