Some– though never having had this problem before– cannot seem to generate any attraction to the gender they have always been drawn to, while they are suddenly feeling attraction (and even bodily responses) to the gender they have never entertained liking before. Many already have a history of OCD, though perhaps it’s never broached their sexuality before now.
