    Trans lesbians are into women, and trans women are women, so generally yes. There are some trans lesbians who prefer T4T (Trans 4 Trans—a relationship between 2 trans people), and some that prefer cis women, but that’s a very individualistic thing that can’t accurately be generalized. Speaking from my experience as a trans lesbian, I’d say I’m probably somewhat less attracted to recently out trans women (womanhood is a journey that takes time to get through), but probably equally attracted to cis women and trans women who have had long journeys through womanhood (assuming they choose to present as femininely as I like, which is also a factor for cis women, mind you). I’m more into the femme crowd, as I hinted at earlier, but what matters more to me than literally anything else is how well I connect with a girl. That’s going to depend a lot on her personality, interests, etc. And I’m not just into lesbians, I’m into any sapphic identity (any woman who loves other women, like bi and pan women). I don’t find myself attracted to nonbinary folks, and I’m actively repulsed by many men, so really I’m just looking for women. I will say that as far as sexual attraction goes, I’m moderately more into women who have vulvas (including ones that were surgically created, of course) than those who have other parts, but I don’t pick my partners based on my sexual attraction to them. I’ll work with whatever someone has and be plenty happy doing it so long as I am attracted to the person underneath.

    Just my personal experience, please don’t try to generalize it. I most often find myself attracted to cis women, but that’s certainly in part due to the fact that sapphic trans woman are much more rare than sapphic cis women (and I do unfortunately often find interest in straight women (which is disappointing), who are in extreme abundance in comparison to either). Womanhood is also a spectrum, and any woman is valid no matter where they land on it, but I find that my hyperfemininity leads me to be most often attracted to highly feminine women, which also plays into it.
