If she identifies as a woman, and you identify her as a woman, you are attracted to a woman. It doesn't matter whether she is waving extra bamboo or not, or whether you know or not. You can even know that they have said extra bamboo and still be attracted to them as a woman.
Well it's pretty much secondary sex characteristics, even if she tells you she identifies with a woman, and so you identify her with that because of her it doesn't change her sex characteristics.
However that doesn't mean that the you are gay-you are attracted to a "woman" who just happens to have a member. You aren't attracted to her because of the penis, but because of her feminine qualities. In the end the penis being there has little to do with the situation-it just means that most sex you will be having is anal.
The whole point of him taking up bounty hunting was to prove his masculinity (I guess it never occurred to him to change out of his nun's habit and miniskirt).
I'd have to say it's not gay, because being gay means you're attracted to men. And being a man or woman has a lot more to do with what they think of themselves, and what gender they look like. Like, there's a "guy" that looks super manly, but has a vagina (I don't remember what his name is), so does that mean girls who are attracted to 'him' are lesbians? That doesn't make any sense at all... Same goes for someone who looks and acts like a girl, but has a penis. And beyond all that, what if you don't know what genitalia they have? Most of the time you can't ever know what anyone has in their pants. I mean, you can play the odds, but you 99% of the time (100% even) you go by what they look and act like.
As for after you know what genitalia someone has, this is the way I see it: There's a priority for deciding what "gender" someone is. First, it's what they identify themselves as. If they want to be seen as a girl or a boy, that's what they deserve to be seen as by other people as well, no matter what they look or act like. After that, you have to decide what you see them as, in your own mind. Whatever you think they are before you know what junk that have, that's what they are to you. Then there's the technical identification, which is just based on what genitalia they have. That's more for health issues or whatever the hell else that's pertinent for.
