Oh, this is a fun thread! I just did this transition and opening up a few years ago and it's been wonderful. One thing to note about online dating though is that men and women are different. You'll probably get fewer views and messages from women than from men because of how we tend to play out our gender roles. Men are more likely to initiate contact, which means less initiating when you're just dating women. Don't be discouraged - women are worth the extra effort. Oh, and fyi, okcupid.com is very queer friendly and free. There's an option in the signup to hide from straight people. Sometimes that's a nice thing.
