Even if the law says you can now be a man, it doesn't mean you really are. Biologically, Luke is a woman. Luke has a vagina, not a penis. If Luke stops taking his meds, he'll go back to being a woman. We, as a society, make accommodations for people that's why as much as we know Luke is biologically a woman, we refer to Luke as him, not her.
As much as he's entitled to live his life in a body that's comfortable for him, let's not forget he has to hide things about himself. Even his employer did not know he was a woman until the series started.

well i disagree with you. I think everyone hides certain things in the beginnings of a relationship. To me it's no different then a woman wearing loads of makeup or putting chicken fillets in their bras to make their breasts look bigger. Everyone hides certain things to be more attractive to people at the start. He never lied about being a man because he is a man.
It would be lying if he pretended to have a penis or specifically, but i don't think he did lie about having a penis. We all put on a facade when we are dating i think, and clearly his wife doesn't feel like she was duped because they are still together. So if she doesn't feel lied to then who are you to say she was lied to?
