I'm a Lesbian, but...?

I may have an attraction to a FTM transgendered person. But the thing is, I've never even been attracted to a butch lesbian. Never saw the point in dating a chick that looks like a dude when I don't like guys.

But 'he' likes to dress like a girl now and again but considers himself dragged out when he does. I find him really attractive as a girl and we have very artistic personalities that mesh.

Yet, he says he thinks of himself as a gay man but can be attracted to a boyish girl, and he likes me.

I'm not a boyish girl, so it leaves me kind of wondering.

All the things I find physically attractive about 'him' are things a typical FTM does not like in themselves, but he sort of does cause he likes to be in drag.

Okay, this all sounds confusing. But I'm not some high school kid who hasn't figured themselves out--I know who and what I am.

My question is, should I even pursue this? And if he's an FTM transgendered person, why does he enjoy 'drag'?

Update:

@Ghost Wolf : I put quotes because sometimes he calls himself a girl! And every other FTM I've met hates the fact that they're girls and refer to themselves as boys constantly. I knew one who went as far as destroying every picture he could of himself as a girl. It's not about respect. It's about confusion. And how is it drag to dress like your biological sex?

    "should I even pursue this?"

    You're a lesbian, he's a guy (see, I didn't use quotes there because of a little thing called respect), it doesn't mesh. So, I say don't unless you see him as a guy, and then for whatever reasons you have beyond that. Otherwise, your doing him a disservice.

    "And if he's an FTM transgendered person, why does he enjoy 'drag'?"

    Some people like to do drag. Some of these people happen to also be transsexual. There are no reasons he shouldn't be able to enjoy it.
