It's a funny thing, the transperson and the ID of others.
I read an article recently about a happily married woman who transitioned believing her husband would leave. He didn't. At the time the article was written he didn't believe he was gay, nor did his former wife believe he was gay, despite them being two men in love.
I'm not not bisexual nor straight and I'm not the only lesbian I know who has kept her lesbian ID despite being happily partnered with a man.
As far as I know straight men tend not to question their ID when getting involved with a transwomen, pre or post op. If she says she's a woman and he's a man, then they are straight. The end.
Which is interesting as gay men will also date transwomen without changing their ID, as will gay men date pre-transition transmen.
In short it seems that sexual ID appears to be irrelevant when it comes to dating someone trans.
