And it is not difficult to see how Charlotte Urie, 20, had no clue that her handsome new beau, Kieran Moloney was born a female called Ciara. With his chiselled jawline and bulging biceps Kieran would not look out of place on a Hollywood red carpet.
For years the 23-year-old kept his sex-swap a secret, until he met Charlotte in 2012. Despite the shocking revelation, the couple are stronger than ever, and are now hoping to get married and start a family -using Kieran's best friend as a sperm donor.
Charlotte, a barista from Camden, London, says: "I would never have guessed Kieran's secret, but as soon as he told me he'd been born a girl it didn't matter to me. I was surprised, but I love him for who he is and see him as a man.
"He's very masculine and has a great body, but he's also my best friend. I never had any concerns about dating someone transgender. Biology doesn't matter." Kieran, originally from New Zealand, but now living in London, says: "When I first met Charlotte I was blown away by her beauty, but I was terrified of how she'd react if she found out I used to be a girl.
I needed to know I could trust her, before I revealed my secret. "Other girlfriends have been ashamed of who I am, but when I told Charlotte, she was so accepting. She's amazing." Describing being told Kieran's news, Charlotte said: "Kieran sat me down and said he had something to tell me. He blurted out he’d been born a girl called Ciara.
I was so surprised. He was so manly. I never had any suspicions. "Kieran was really nervous and told me he'd understand if I just wanted to be friends. We talked it through for hours.
I knew I still loved him and wanted to be with him. It didn't matter he'd been born a girl." Kieran added: "So many girlfriends before had been embarrassed by me and I didn't want any more rejection. I felt such a connection to Charlotte I didn't want her to end the relationship. So when she reacted like it was nothing, I felt so relieved. Finally I met someone who liked me for me."
