More and more people these days think so.
Some people think that the surgery isn' t even necessary - but simply living as a woman makes a person female - despite having male genitalia.
....
IF something as quantifiable as genitalia isn't an indication of the identification of sex - how can something as ambiguous as skin coloration be an identifier of race?
Shouldn't a person have the right to self identify what race they belong to?
And those of you - who this question angers (there will be several) - explain rationally why there is a difference.
You're confused though.
Trans people don't just wake up day and decide to choose a new gender.
What they choose is whether or not to have the CORRECTIVE surgery and/or hormonal therapy required for the body to appropriately correspond with the gender that they already are and always have been.
