I don't think your attraction is unusual. I have known both men and women who were attracted to female mother figures (sexually attracted).

My initial thought is that you work not to judge your impulse. Then find a friend, a female friend, who seems motherly and take it from there. You might need an emotional female friendship, or you might find that, after some time, vaginas aren't so unlikable, after all.

I don't believe that knowing why you have the feelings you do is so important. You can go around in circles with that for years. I believe that moving ahead and allowing yourself to non-judgmentally explore your feelings (because there is absolutely nothing wrong with your feelings...they're not creepy or illegal) is the way to go.

Another option is to find a therapist who is a female mother figure and work on your feelings with her.

Good luck. I think you have a potentially really interesting and perfectly healthy feelings. It sounds like you just need to work on accepting them.
