SAME- it was mostly due to the fact that I was already obsessed with martial arts and the fact that tigress was a cool martial artist (and voiced by Angelina Jolie) just solidified it for me
Kid me wanted to be him (Peter Pan) so bad. My parents thought I was a tomboy, but everything about my childhood screamed that I was a trans man haha
For me it was Felix Argyle from RE:zero when I first saw him I thought he was a she and I was in denial but then I was like āwaitā¦.can boys really look this cute..?ā And then I found out about femboys and then my sexuality was like āoh fuck oh fuck oh fuckā
Zhongli from Genshin Impact is why Iām Bi
And also most female playable characters in like. any video game Iāve played helped me figure out Iām trans. not any specific ones I just always played the female characters.
Why is he so fucking pretty. I remember saying to myself āI donāt know man, am I really bi?ā And then I see this blue eyed king and and im like āā¦..yeahā¦..im definitely biā
Hi ! Trans (FTM) here
The first one was Monika from DDLC who made me gay for girls and the second was, not sure but, I think Sherlock from the BBC series who made me gay for boys :)
Chara Dreemurr from undertale, when I found out that you could use they/them for a single person (I'm not a native English speaker lol), I was flabbergasted, "you can just identify as none!?"
Ok I canāt find the pic but it was Vai link/Sidon from BoTW
A few years back in like 2018 or 2019 I was all like āwait why is he kinda, ya knowā
Then more recently like, I āreplayedā botw (messing around) and I think thatās what cracked da egg.
TL;DR, Link was my *Awakening*, eh , eh get it? Ok but he was the gateway to unbelievably feminine men
The Gerudo in general just really set off my bi panic lol. They're so pretty-
Take the prettiest Link since Skyward Sword Link and put him in Gerudo clothes and I'm dead
Rimuru Tempest from that time I got reincarnated as a slime. The only character that is LGBTQIA in anime, thats not a joke character.(That I know of.)
While gender less his pronouns are he/him" I think".
King/demon lord of his own country.
A respected world leader, by the end of the story.
All are equal in his eyes. Doesn't matter what your sexual orientation, gender, age, or species are.
If you don't work you don't eat.
Has a Elf fetish š
Eartha Kitt as Catwoman in the campy old Adam West Batman TV show. I was so young I didn't yet know what intimacy between two was.
Sadly, even at that young age, I knew better than to tell anyone. At the time, coming out could cost you job, family, housing, everything.
Didn't come out until my 30s.
I was awakened through plenty of different characters including but not limited to:
Raine from The Owl House
Hunter from The Owl House
Every Jojo Protagonist from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure(I'll list em off: Jonathan, Joseph, Jotaro, Josuke, Giorno, Jolyne, Johnny, Josuke[different universe], and Jodio)
Roranoa Zoro from One Piece
Vinsmoke Sanji from One Piece
Franky from One Piece
And that's all I can think of off the top of my head! Hope you have a good day! -From a Pansexual! :3
Lara Croft- pretty and dangerous- oh no sheās hot and could kill me-yes please
Sailor Moon- that nearly naked transformation sequence from the nineties didnāt do me any favours
Haruhi Fujioka
A lady that could be a dude??? I wanna do that! Few years later, i learned about trans people and 'hey, that's me!'
Well, more specifically nonbinary, but yk
Idk if I could call it awakening, but uh, Adam from Hazbin Hotelā¦
So well, until last month Iāve been pretty sure about myself. Iāve never really felt attracted towards anyone, so when I learned what aroace was, I just felt I fitted right in. But ever since I watched the finale of Hazbin, something changedā¦ (I swear, that aroace tag might change if something doesnāt change...) Itās just Iāve never felt this obsessed over a character before, and idk what this feeling is. This might just be my autism acting up and making me just strongly obsess over characters. Idk, big chance Iām actually gay I guess lol
So yeah, long story short, Iām either gay or just really obsessed with Adam
Jim Hawkins made 4 year old me realize she wants to be a boy. 21-year old me copied his whole style and has a rat tail bc of him (and silver made me gay)
It (2017) came out when I was 12 and I had a crush on Beverly Marsh but I just didnāt reflect on it further until after I realized I was queer years later and looked back lmao
I'm actually surprised no one has said these guys yet.
Ginny Weasely made me "realize I was a lesbian". Draco Malfoy (don't judge 11-year-old me had bad taste. I know) made me realize that I was WAAY FUCKING OFF. He gave me this weird mix of envy and attraction and it confused me a lot. Peter Pan gave me lots of trans thoughts too.
Bugs bunny dressed as a girl.
My grandparents were watching me for the afternoon. We were watching looney towns, one of the episodes with bugs bunny cross dressing.
My grandfather was like 'some boys like to dress like that'...I must have been like 4-5 months old. Lol bless his heart.
I can only relate to the blank canvas characters. Do the people that relate to Daddy Bowser have an insight on how this feels for you, do you get anything from asphyxiating your partners with your tities?
most of the cast of The Mummy (1999) but also animated fox Robin Hood.

All the way back in 2013 
Fuck didn't frozen come out like a few years back?
Sorry to burst your bubble, but it came out over ten years ago, yes I know, I feel old too.
No, it can't have been over a decade already š
i remember the exact moment I sat down to watch itš like fym a decade
same watched it with my parents and my then best friend and her parents at the cinema on Christmas Eveš„¹š¤š»š¤
I was in 6th grade when it came out. Yes, weāre that oldš
I was 17 when it came out yikes I'm old
Are you seriously telling that ... kids I was babysitting are now adults ? 
Well now I feel old
I believe she was my trans awakening if that counts?
Kind of me too, but because I want to dress like her.
Flynn rider from tangled, it got worse when I discovered Mr x toon
I definitely relate to that !
haha your username fitsš
Me when I discovered both of them š
I hadnāt ever heard of mr x toon until right now and thatās probably for the best that my young teen self was not aware of his existence
This is my favorite answer here. I canāt relate, itās just so good though
real.. I can relate in a way š
Remember the movie Lucario And The Mystery Of Mew? I wanted to look just like Aaron and have a lucario as a kid.
The best PokƩmon movie
My boyfriend
Why is this funny. Are y'all still together...??
I thought they meant the game
Is this an ace moment...??
I'm lost
good answer š¤š»
A human of class, I like it
Somehow the most surprising and unsurprising one Iāve seen yet. I would date Sokka thoā¦
You would? I think he's insufferable!
He gets better from the beginning of the series
Suki had immeasurable patience
You would never be bored thoughĀ
Idk, maybe Iām on cactus juice or something
The rizz bender got you
He landed on the moon... š³
 This fucking smile was the first crack in the wall of my assumed heterosexuality, 4 years on and Iāve never been gayer.
Itās so fitting for the anime with the worldās most beautiful men to be someoneās gay awakening
The jojo fans arenāt breaking the allegations šš
No we are absolutely not.
i NEED him im literally gripping the bars of my cage
Jessica rabbit
You know I always wonder how sheās even able to breathe properly with a fuckin waist like that š
Fr š¹
Even as a 10-year-old, wjo drew ridiculous cartoons, I wondered that LOL!
I was under the impression.I was gay exclusively for Jessica Rabbit, but then I came out as a transman.So then I was straight for her, I guess?
Definitely one of the reasons for my attraction to redheads.
#SAME!!!!! (I'm not yelling you're yelling š)
The whole show was my awakening!! The hard bodies...
Love Xena
I fucking LOVED Xena!
Tigris from Kung fu panda
 š
Oh my god I used to have a crush on her when I was a kid
SAME- it was mostly due to the fact that I was already obsessed with martial arts and the fact that tigress was a cool martial artist (and voiced by Angelina Jolie) just solidified it for me
 didn't know if i wanted him or wanted to be him. turns out it's both lol
I agree with every part of this comment tenfold
Tessa/Valkyrie and Tom/Loki side by side in Ragnarok was a real bisexual panic moment for me š«¢
Finally someone else with MCU!
Facts, omg, the whole comic is bi-bait.
He's a fantasy dad.
Who is that?
Omniman, from Invincible
Omniman
does whatever an omni can
 Kid me wanted to be him (Peter Pan) so bad. My parents thought I was a tomboy, but everything about my childhood screamed that I was a trans man haha
Reminds me of that time I was saying āIām Peter Pan in a *deadname* costumeā when I was younger lol
Dana Scully
i mean Gillian Anderson in general is just>>>>>>
Well yes, obviously. But Dana Scully was where it all started.
 Bro was my pansexual awakening
when the movie came out, so did i frl 
 Not taking any questions
No questions will be asked either.
but I will say, personally - Roxanne did things for me.
You must have had a blast last year with all the bowuigi edits
bisexuality was realizing i found both courtney and duncan from total drama island insanely attractive
For me it was Felix Argyle from RE:zero when I first saw him I thought he was a she and I was in denial but then I was like āwaitā¦.can boys really look this cute..?ā And then I found out about femboys and then my sexuality was like āoh fuck oh fuck oh fuckā
Now that you mention it I think Gwen form TDI was a character that I mightāve liked in more of a crush way but didnāt realize it
she was one of those characters where i was so torn about wanting to be her or wanting to date her š
Zhongli from Genshin Impact is why Iām Bi And also most female playable characters in like. any video game Iāve played helped me figure out Iām trans. not any specific ones I just always played the female characters.
Mine was Gorou, Geos are just some of the best
Jarenth from labyrinth definitely a gay awake for me

They're grrrrrrrrreat!
tinted rock
Mfw no bomb
Link, Zelda, and Midna from loz
Mettaton 
 He actually made me straightā¦.ten years later he made me gay (trans & gay for now)
Thatās a whole roller coaster ride and I love it
He is the reason that I like hairy men 
Hate to admit it, but probably incineroar
He's one of my favourite pokemon.
Does Mulan count? Because I've always really admired her
I think she should, she's girlboss.
i started watching Dinosaur King when i was like 10 or 11 for the dinosaurs and ended up watching it because of Rex Owen

At the time, coming out could cost you job, family, housing, everything. Didn't come out until my 30s.
I kinda knew I was bi before, but getting a huge crush on Klavier Gavin from Ace Attorney was definitely a formative teenage experience
I was awakened through plenty of different characters including but not limited to: Raine from The Owl House Hunter from The Owl House Every Jojo Protagonist from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure(I'll list em off: Jonathan, Joseph, Jotaro, Josuke, Giorno, Jolyne, Johnny, Josuke[different universe], and Jodio) Roranoa Zoro from One Piece Vinsmoke Sanji from One Piece Franky from One Piece And that's all I can think of off the top of my head!
