You know what, I actually agree with Wooters (don't hate me).
Sex is fixed. You're born a boy or a girl. Who can really deny this? I am in disagreement when people are allowed to change their birth certificates to change the sex that they are born as. I think this is actually really wrong. I do understand how people can grow up, have a sex change and then have issues legally (like marriage etc.). But there should be another way around it.
You're essentially changing your personal history to suit your own preferences. I don't think this is all that right. That's just my opinion though. What is really of concern is gender. Gender is different to sex is it not?
Gender means more about what a person thinks inside their head. At least that's my understanding of it. Sex is something you're born with. I agree it can be changed medically later in life, but if you're born a man, you're always born a man IMHO.
