It's not about who you have sex with, but about how you wish to view yourself (and wish others to view you).
I still don't get it yall. What's all this nonsense about changing sexes anyway?
Plastic surgery and chemical changes upon a body ≠ changing someone's root DNA, and equipping them will full reproductive capabilities representative of their new sex.

No, it's actually so freaking simple that even trying to talk about it to anyone who does not know much about it practically has to involve an over-simplification and utter misrepresentation of what is actually happening.
People convolute it with the idea that something is changing about a person other than their appearance and satisfaction with life... leading to such completely ignorant terms as transgendered (the gender is not changing), and transsexual (neither is the sex).
Not that it's not possible for someone to be either of these things, only that the wide majority of the 'trans community' does not fit the bill delivered by these completely misleading words. Unfortunate then, that it is all we have
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
