There are very different personas triggered, and it confuses people all the time. The emotions, thoughts, reactions are genuine even though they are contradictory. It is what defines DID. So it isn’t at all surprising you have multiple sexual preferences. You may even be multitalented, but not always capable of performing that talent – I can play the piano sometimes, but not other times.
