Love Evolves: Woman Finds New Attraction as Spouse Transitions
17 Jun
Summary
- Wife discovered bisexuality during spouse's gender transition.
- Marriage strengthened as partner embraced authentic gender identity.
- Couple shares their journey with over one million followers online.

Amanda Scott, 39, initially identified as straight and married her spouse, Shaye, who was then a man. Fifteen years into their marriage, Shaye began her gender transition, leading Amanda to question her own sexuality. Raised with a strong emphasis on 'born this way' narratives, Amanda initially struggled, believing she was only attracted to men.
However, as Shaye’s social and physical changes progressed, Amanda realized her attraction to her partner was deepening. She came to understand that she is bisexual. This evolving attraction has strengthened their bond. Shaye, who shares her life with Amanda and their three children across social media platforms, recently announced upcoming bottom surgery.
Amanda emphasizes that her partner’s gender affirmation has positively impacted their relationship. She notes that as transgender individuals feel more comfortable in their own bodies, it benefits their partnerships. The couple, now openly a queer couple, finds joy in witnessing Shaye’s journey towards self-acceptance.
