[Serious] That Trans Thread

[Irreligious Atheist]

John has been known to wear both...

In public?  Does he/she shave his legs (and, in my case, arms), wear makeup, jewelry, pluck his eyebrows (some women like more "bushy" ones, as do I), wear perfume, lipstick, etc.?

In my opinion, until and when a biological male is willing to openly and regularly wear a dress/skirt in public (with or without dark glasses -- I've done both), they have yet to cross the threshold into transgenderville.

Transgenderism has nothing to do with clothing or shaving your legs. Any person of any gender can wear any clothing they want.

Why do they have to wear a dress or skirt in public? What if they're a girl who doesn't like dresses and prefers pants?

All you have to do to cross the threshold into transgenderville is change your gender identity. My daughter goes by they and cut their hair, and identifies as transgender. ALL transgender means is that you now identify with a different gender than you were once grouped in with. You transition to a new gender, hens the trans part.

I think you might be referring to transsexualism rather than transgenderism.
