Well I'm not expert at social science, but I'd say to go slowly for him in steps, give him time to adjust for each one.

As a transsexual mate of a transsexual I must concur. Even though I am trans I still have issues accepting my spouses transition sometimes.
If your husband isn't bisexual there will come a point when he will unlikely wish to continue a sexual relationship. Some mates cease sexual relations with a trans spouse as soon as the coming out process starts. Other relationships morph and last. But be aware of the odds. They are not good. Not trying to make you down, just pointing it out so you can work to avoid issues down the road.

Aye, I get your points, and I'm not seeing these as something to turn me away from the idea of transition completely, just a friendly warning.

Its one of the reasons I'm sort of pulling away from the ideas of surgery, and to an extent, seeking T therapy. Because I don't want my partner to pull away from ME because my body isnt his ideal anymore. I mean, I'm going to seek a therapist to talk it out with, and keep using prosthetics and binding etc, coz then I can always go back to the way I was for my partner, and its almost like the best of both worlds in a way. Just wonder how long I can keep that up before I go nuts! xD
