// *There are, in fact, "XX men and XY women", in the sense that for whatever reason, even at birth the genetically- determined sex doesn't match the outward appearance. This is separate from, but of course related to, transgender, because it shows that XX/XY is very much not "end of". // There are not. In any sense. XX is always female. XY is always male. One's...

Untitled... referring to your "gender" is like referring to your character. It's not something that has relevance except to you and those around you.
We have only ever needed to know "sex" and that is where the harm has come in, by confusing the two. Sports, safe spaces, medical treatments, harassment, people having life-changing operations to make them sterile and so on.
Maybe if we started using the words transman and transwoman the right way round, it might cause less disruption, offence, confusion...

Apparently they do, though, ummm. Is there any reason why a man shouldn't be able to wear a dress, make-up, wig, high heels... and still be able to use his own public toilet without being abused, harassed or beaten up?
Jim, I don't think they are and I'm surprised even transpeople accept it. A transwoman is a woman who is transgender (so technically would prefer he/she). So not only does it mean the opposite of what they would like... it seems to confuse everyone else as well.
At least if they were used the other way round, it would be clear biologically too. It's what they do in Iceland... and they are doing far better with this than we are.

I believe if we let our kids be who they want it solves a lot of the issues.
It's funny now but my youngest son used to wear clothes pegs in his hair. I didn't care, he was happy. I got a few funny looks in the supermarket but it wasn't my kid having a hissy fit, he was too busy rearranging his pegs :-)

There are lots of reasons it was changed -- I'm not sure that in itself is one of them, although maybe it's part of it. But mainly it's to recognise that someone can transition without needing to go through any surgical procedures.
I'm not sure there's either been confusion about the meaning of "trans woman" (ie, a woman who was assigned male at birth) and vice versa.

I disagree, Jim... there are many people who believe transgender means you have changed sex.
I'm sure you've seen, for instance (and I hope so, as I'm not sure how quickly it was buried).... the number of nurses complaining that they were being forced to do smear tests on men? Not only no cervix, and abuse of the nurses, but a total waste of NHS resources.
