Only to promptly Squick herself out when she realizes what she's thinking. Attractive Bent Gender operates in tandem with the First Law of Gender Bending to leave the world more attractive than it had been before. Or at least no less attractive. A handsome man may become a beautiful woman... but so will an unattractive man. In true Gender Bender or Easy Sex Change situations, one rarely encounters a handsome man who becomes an unattractive woman.

See also Rule 63, which basically exists because of this trope. When they actually are both genders, it becomes Everybody Wants the Hermaphrodite. Contrary to stereotype, this can be Truth in Television. Examples of Attractive Bent Gender include:
