25. My SO was born female
we got married first and then he transitioned to male. We are still legally married but I'm wondering what kind of mess the Federal government is going to throw at us later.

It's not possible for someone to change back to male after the operation to be female. They could stop taking the female hormones but there is no way to reconstruct the penis to the way it was before. I've only heard of one case where after the operation they felt they had made a huge mistake. They would just have to try as best they can to live intersexed. Most Female to Male (like my partner) do not want the bottom surgery because it is just not as advanced as the Male to Female surgery.

As for Nathan and Joe, someones sexual preference is already established and a change in their gender shouldn't have any effect on that. But then again, hormones are a powerful thing maybe it just brought out and intensified some hidden feelings.

Labels...I am bisexual, my partner considers himself gay. I think it's helpful if someone transgendered can find a partner that is bisexual because it is a transition for both people.
