Its complicated for transexuals and I know they suffer big time.  Taking on another gender than one was born with is tough to do.  Despite that,  it simply isn't true or HONEST to say they become the opposite sex.  They have the genes of their former gender we live in a milieu, (pew). There's much more to identity than self identity.  And likewise the millieu is much more complex than what they see as binary patriarchy. 

I really don't understand the issue.
As a person in a monogamous relationship, i really don't care what gender someone else is.  The only reason I WOULD care is if i wanted to sleep with them.  But thanks to my wife that's not a factor.
 
To me, if someone is uncomfortable enough with their gender/image-of-gender that they have their genitals chopped off (or take hormone pills, or whatever), I'm willing to address them as whatever gender they want! They've earned that, and it's virtually no effort on my part to show that person respect.  I can't imagine the stress and trauma that leads to that change.
 
As for the genetic make-up of their bodies, who cares?  I'm not a biologist.

I love every one of you.

 

And with better timing than I've ever had musically, I just read this article from a Toronto news site:
 
"A man is critically injured after he was stabbed in Regent Park on Tuesday night.
It happened at Shuter and Sackville streets around 7:30 p.m., police say. 
The man was rushed to a trauma centre in life-threatening condition, according to paramedics. 
There is no word on the victim’s age or gender. 
No arrests have been made."

With all of the new genders, the opportunities for s#x have increased exponentially!!

Not for me they ain't. I still appear as an ugly little old git to any gender you can imagine.

These people who have the sex organs for both genders can go eph themselves.

The picture of the XY ladies I posted in the pink thread are people with adrogen insensitivity syndrome. Their Y chromosome is fully functional, but none of their cells respond to the male hormones produced so they still develop as females.
 
Fun science fact - Females are the default gender, and all embryos begin developing as female (which is why men still have nipples). Then when the Y chromosome activates it both inhibits female development, and causes masculinization of the sex organs.
