Thank you as always for your love and support. As we’ve been trying to upload more frequently, we’ve been playing around with video styles. Do you like this sit down style or would you prefer more of a vlog style (example: day in the life)? ❤

"I feel a lot more connected to you, because I feel more connected with me." ❤ beautiful.

My intersex sexual development made me sort of male and female. We made our sexual lives work for us. It is a wonderful thing to have a wife who actually understands and accepts me. This has been 50 years for us, so we must be doing something right. ❤ I’m proud of both of you for living your life and love. ❤️

You are both ROCK STARS, seriously. 😂💜 People are SO CONCERNED with how queer people get intimate, it's so bizarre isn't it? When my son came out to me as a Trans man when he was a teenager, everyone always asked me whether he was attracted to men or women and I always had to educate them that sexuality is separate from gender identity! People who have never been exposed to it have a hard time understanding it at first, but it's an important message; I love that you guys are spreading it in such a fun loving way. 🤩🤩

Thank you for your continued willingness to put this content out publicly. No easy task. It will be an incredible day when labels and sexual intimacy is not where everybody's mind goes to first.

It doesn't matter what package you come in. It's the heart and soul you fall in love with. Lets face it looks fade. Your love is absolutely heartwarming ❤

I must say this is entirely different from any content I'd normally watch. First I saw a few of your short clips then I took the time to watch any of your videos that popped up. I'm in awe of your love story. With so many failed relationships out there, all of mine included, Lol it's awesome to see the love you two beautiful souls have for each other. I'm rooting for you and subscribing now.

You are the proof, you should love someone for who they are. That way you’ll love each other no matter what. People can learn from that.

Amanda seemed she would cry at any moment.

You both are so beautiful but idk how anyone couldn't be attracted to Shaye. She is just so sweet and gentle and beautiful to look at. I love how soft she is. The way you guys explain your attraction to each other just makes perfect sense to me. I feel the exact same way when I'm in love with someone. The attraction is just to the person and how they make me feel.

I love that you guys are talking about this! Sexuality is so sacred between both parties but having you share just a tad but about your story hopefully will bring awarness to others! Even though you didn’t have to, thank you for sharing! I hope this touches lives and opens peoples eyes!

When my trans son first "came out" he came out as "lesbian" then eventually he felt more comfortable to be his true self and realized he was trans. I was already a trans advocate and supporter before he came out so I was able to be understanding and be supportive. I have to admit I was confused overall because he never seemed lesbian, He always loved women "as a man" if that makes any sense, he was a male in his essence and so that (being lesbian) confused me. turns out he was actually trans just had not accepted it yet. When I understood the difference between gender and sexuality I understood why he was trans and not lesbian. He is happy and in a great relationship now and I couldn't be happier for him. May we all be happy and well.

I heard an alternative definition of bisexual as being attracted to people of my same gender and people of a different gender. I liked how that was put.

Love the sit down style, and love love the vulnerability and (dare I say) intimacy of the revelation of the psychological / emotional landscape of your relationship. This is what courage and value looks like in people and a progressive channel like this one. Thank you Amanda and Shaye, you give so much to the world through your sharing. Cheers. :)

I just love your story and your willingness to be open. It is so eye opening as to how being truly yourself clearly brings so much happiness!

I like the way you both sit quite comfortably with blankets to stay cosy and have a chat and allow us a glance into your personal lives. Thank you

These two are incredibly articulate. Love them.

I love you both so much. I'm going to tell you you guys are maybe responsible for me being alive. 3 weeks ago I was breaking mentally and I don't know where I would have went. I was dressed up and I had nowhere left to turn. And I just thought I could never be who I wanted to be because it would ruin my girlfriend's life. She had been struggling with the thought of me transitioning before I ever even mentioned it. But she saw a different side of it through your surprise surprise TikTok that Amanda had rediscovered her sexuality after Shaye's transition. She expressed something to me and that just broke the dam in my brain and cracked my egg fully. I've been able to reach out to support groups, get closer to my girlfriend, start figuring this out together, and I've made another friend in the same situation as me through discord today. The inspiration yall have given me is immeasurable. Thank you both for being you. I love yall so much

As a retired psychotherapist, I would say that many, if not most relationships, are transactional. You two are working on something that seems richer and deeper than that. I appreciate your courage and willingness to give others a window into your process.

Y’all’s respect and love for one another is palpable. We are so lucky to hear from y’all about your specific journey. Amanda your perspective on loving Shaye in her truest form is so refreshing. I do relate to you so much when you say, you grew up with male attraction but thought women were beautiful. Two things: I’ve never thought of having sexual relations with women and in all things I champion for every human to be their truest self, so if my husband were to ever present to me that he felt more like another gender I too would hope *they’d* let me venture into that unknown with them. Because my partners soul and happiness is one of the greatest joys of my life. ❤

I so appreciate you two opening up about things I'd never dare to ask but was curious about.

Thank your for continuing to share so much of yourselves with us! It’s really beautiful watching this aspect of your lives continue to blossom ❤ My heart just glows listening to you both. Your unconditional love for each other is palatable and simply amazing.

I am SO impressed by all the learning and self exploration you've embraced. So smart and empowering and enriching to do this for yourselves, and so generous to share! The sit-down style is a perfect way to convey what you are learning and to model this awesome and fulfilling way to approach life.

I have been with my husband for 31 years. As our bodies have changed, so has our intimacy. We look different now. Our hormone levels have changed. Our intimacy is still present, in fact I would say closer than when we first met. Based on your explanation it sounds similar. You still have intimacy with one another even with the changes you have under gone. Thanks for sharing! 😊

I love your honesty & transparency!! So happy you have each other!! 🕊️

Both are tremendous and I so appreciate you addressing these questions with open heartedness and kindness rather than defensiveness (which would be warranted given it’s truly none of our business). BUT I think you do so much good for others who don’t have to feel alone because of you two beautiful humans using your platform to speak openly and honestly. Assuming the best of people - that they are curious - that they are confused - that they are interested - that they too have been shaped by our culture of projection. Every couple has the right and joy of expressing intimacy in the ways that feel organic and loving to them. Thank you so so much for your channel and your hearts.

I love that you’re addressing the things people are curious about. Education is key

If I’m asked for examples of a healthy marriage…I’ll use you two as an example.

I have deep respect for your determination to keep healthy boundaries and answer only the questions you want. The rest is nobody's business, as you said. I also loved the treatment you gave to labels which seem to be so necessary for many people. I guess it helps them nail down what is actually a mysterious/confusing realm. What comes through loud and clear is your sophistication, articulation, and deep love for each other. That's gold!

I love your love! So pure 🥺 I’m so happy for you to be able to give each other your 100% authentic selves

As always I appreciate your vulnerability and openness. Sending you both oodles and oodles of love from me to you both.

Absolutely adore the two of you! Thank you for sharing your life and all it's changes. I look forward to all your future posts, have a wonderful week!

I love you BOTH !!! Your candidness inspires me !!!

Over the course of watching these videos, your connection with each other has always been easy - & beautiful - to see. I hope you've had a lovely weekend, & best wishes to all the family.

Shaye is so beautiful! Thank you guys for sharing your experience

You 2 humans drew me in with your story. ❤ I haven’t viewed all your videos…..yet. so my apologies if this was already addressed~~I’m curious if Amanda has talked about if she was blindsided by Shaye’s decision to transition or if she had moments in their marriage where she wondered if something was going on with Shaye. I’m assuming Amanda went thru the grief process in some aspect as her world changed too. And with my nosey comments I just posted for all to see, I will say Shaye’s aura is just super brilliant. It’s so obvious just how at peace she is. I love her constant smile! You have a fascinating story and I’m really glad your family popped up on my recommendations. Amanda, you are the coolest human (and I’m envious you are a badass behind the sewing machine) Without a doubt, you 2 are the perfect sample of a deep soul connection ❤ good for you!!! Thank you for sharing your story. ✌️

Thank you for another great video. I like both styles of vlogs. As for what I see from the outside in compatibility, I see a new spark in the relationship. You both seem happier. Love you two!💖💖

I Love when you said, "You are my person" to Amanda. ❤❤❤

I love you both! thank you for being vulnerable. You are helping me

the happiness and love you two have for each other and your family is literally glowing out of your skin. ❤❤

You are the best! I so appreciate your openness and your courage.

Thank you both for being so brave, so authentic, in sharing your story. As the mom of a transgender daughter, I am grateful for anyone who helps educate the public in getting to know that transgender people are just like everyone else in so many ways.

Would love to see another one of your home decor videos. You both have such great taste

I can feel in my chest the soul bond you two have. It is so beautiful 🥹♥️

Like I said before, you two are soul mates! Amanda you are so thoughtful and able to express what you are feeling in away that we can all understand. Shaye has a way of making us smile about the discomfort of the subject at hand,lol, but certainly can articulate her inner thoughts as well. I can't think of two better people to help all of us understand that love is love.❤️👍 Thank you!

I just found y'all's channel today. This was my first video of y'all I watched. You 2 are amazing people and I absolutely love every one of y'all's videos. 2 beautiful ladies living their best life.

Thank you for helping us understand and learn more ❤

I so appreciate you guys sharing with us to help us to understand. Thank you

Exactly! None of our darn business! The two of you have made it work - period! Hugs Ladies😊

My Goodness.. I Have NO IDEA How People Think Your Intimate Relationship Is Any Of Their Business 🙄 However, You Ladies Are Freakin Stunning!, Smart, Witty, Hilarious & You Have This Quality That Just Feels Safe Through Your Videos. I’m So Happy To See Both Of You LIVING, Exploring And Being Authentically. 🤍Over Here Cheering For You & Your Beautifully Family. Xo

Thank you. That was the question. Love to see your love.

Love is Love!! I adore you 2, and all the educational info you provide... Keep doing what you are doing, It looks Great on you all!!

I love how the both of you call each other MY PERSON no matter what any one says its YOUR MARRIAGE ❤ YOUR CHOICE Thanks for sharing 😊

Now I'm convinced Shaye is a lesbian who once proposed to her bride as man. This will make us "rethink" of definition of love.

A beautiful couple! Thank you for sharing your story!

You are such a blessing to this world (I might repeat myself, but it can't be said too often ❤)

So beautiful to watch your healthy relationship! Thanks for your content and for the representation

The love you have for each other is apparent. The tenderness and respect you show each other warms my heart. It’s delightful how Shay’s eyes sparkle when she talks about you, Amanda. It’s obvious there is an intimate connection between you. Intimate, of course, does not necessarily mean sexual. It is generous of you both to answer the curious.

You two are amazing !!! Thanks for sharing your journey ❤

I think that these questions are important for those who have no guides that are struggling with the same issue. We should all strive for peace and unity. I do think of you are heroic persons and hope that you continue on your journey as well as freeing other people from their religious indoctrinitions too.

You can tell this is real love the Way you to look at each other. I’m so happy for both of you.❤

You two are amazing! Beautiful people inside and out. Sending love and positive vibes your way ❤️ ✨️

You guys are so cool!!! I love how cool and collected Shaye is and I love how animated Amanda is (for example, you move your head around a lot when you speak, which is AWESOME!). I love this couple!

I enjoy some sit down style, and some day in the life! Whatever snippets you feel comfortable sharing! It was very generous of you both to share this video regarding intimacy in your marriage! I mean really, why wouldn’t there be? Much love to you both and your beautiful family ❤

Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful story. ❤❤❤

The most important thing is that you’re wonderful parents and happy! God bless the positivity and happiness in your household. That is what’s important .

Thank you both for continuing to share and educate. You are both beautiful people and so brave to share your amazing story and family. Only good can come from talking about your situation. Hello and love from Australia.💕🇦🇺

I’m so beyond happy I found you both on instagram, I love to see the journey you’re both on it’s truly so beautiful and intense, I commend you both on being the strong diva’s you are!! Sending so much love x

I love y’all! Love that Shaye can be who she is and that you’re both still VERY much in love ❤

Love you two so much!! ❤❤❤

Amanda and Shaye, you ladies are amazing ❤

thanks for being willing to share these very personal aspects! while some may say "its none of their business!", and certainly if a person or couple doesnt want to share, their privacy should be respected... but when people ARE able to share, it helps others to understand. and in a perfect world, everyone can be accepting of others differences without understanding the details... but for many people it really does help to make things more comfortable. a person who is accepting and respectful but doesnt understand, will be more likely to maintain a bit of distance, maybe be less relaxed in a social setting, because they dont know whats ok to say, standard social norms and jokes may not "hit right", not wanting to say something offensive... but the more you know and understand, the more natural those things can be. *especially* to anyone who is neurodivergent and already struggles with social interactions!

What a great answer!

Sit Downey style is 👍 but either way Thank you for allowing us in to your World. Ive learned so much already.

This was very insightful. Thank you.

You are both so lovely. So happy to watch your journey.

This is interesting. Thank you both for sharing your thoughts.

The two of you are just so incredible. I think I say the same almost every video now. But it’s true. You are incredible and amazing and brave and just so solid!!! I love your relationship. I pray that one day I will be able to have a relationship as fulfilling and open as yours.

You two are so BEAUTIFUL❤

You two are really amazing!

I think you both are so awesome ❤ So honest and real

I love you guys so much dude- ur openness is so refreshing. Hope you both dont ever feel presure to overshare. I feel like talking about this on ur channel is so rock and roll. Yall r the best.

You are both beautiful. Thank you for sharing your truth with us. ❤ i just see so much love ❤

You guys are funny. good answers. At the end of the day it's "You are my person"

i love you both! such care and support for one another! sadly for me im sure im going to go my own way once im out. I do hope we get to meet one day in person as you both are who I look up too.

I really really love u guys!!!

It's cool to watch the two of you talking so openly and vulnerably about your marriage and how this has changed, yet revealed, how strong your love was in the first place. Obviously it makes a lot of people uncomfortable. Fascinating how binary our culture has been.

You said "more beautiful" towards the end of the vlog and it made me think of a movie i watched and a saying from it. ~ You're more beautiful for having been broken ~ But don't misconstrue that as a negative connotation because some of the best things and most positive people in life have broken before they've blossomed. With love to you both! ♥️

Beautiful amazing couple - if we could all be so luck. thank you for sharing.

I love to learn about people all the time. Thank you. I’m a vegetarian and people ask how I get my protein. What? I don’t understand why people ask about people’s intimate details. Or what their protein intake is!

You both are so beautiful inside and out❤️. New subscriber ❤

I hope for an outcome as good as yours❤

I love you both! You two are so wonderful and I'm so happy for you. A topic that didn't need to be addressed to please some, but bravo! As a trans woman I'm so grateful for you both sharing your journey and intimate lives. I know it helps all of us. You make us all human. Thank you.

You two don't have to explain yourself to anyone!...You don't owe anyone anything!...But it is good that you two talk about these subjects, because it helps educate others!...It also helps other couples like yourselves!...To have someone to relate too!...I think ya'll are awesome!...Way to go!🙂❤

I was happy because I felt like I got to see more of who Shay is. She really claimed Amanda. I have seen it before but not with such urgency and being out. I love that about you two. Amanda you are beyond strong, and loyal, both of you are. I adore you both. I left the church at 20 because I didn't want to be a woman like that, and I didn't believe in much of any of the doctrine. I loved this video.

Hi from Arkansas my wife and i jus watched this on her lunch break..I came an picked her up...we love u both so much..beautiful

Why are you sounding so sad? Sounds like you could cry at any second?

I don't think you can find intimacy without being your authentic self. Love you both!

Love you guys ❤️

Also it’s beautiful to see the congruency in your life that lines up now 😊 Also it should go both ways, I hope that your wife also feels a congruency in who she loves. She wouldn’t be wrong to say that she loves the masculinity in her marriage from a partner. Neither couple should suffer. Both couples should have their needs met.
