I am not sure what you concretely mean by 'receive a string', but I 
think you are again batting at a strawman. If you mean 'read from a 
file', and all you want to do is read bytes from and write bytes to 
external 'files', then there is obviously no need to transcode and 
neither Python 2 or 3 make you do so.
