22 - There is no such thing as a sex transition

I see a lot of people "transition" to the opposite sex, and I use the term "transition" very loosely here, because it's not at all what it seems on the surface, believing that it is indeed a true, scientific transition from A to B.

+

It is not. There is no such thing as a true sex transition. I would like to highlight what the definitions of "sex" and "gender" are here.

+

Gender is the societal construct of what it is to be a man or a woman. Sex is the science and fact behind what it is to be male or female, according to mammal biology.

+

I am tired of people conflating that gender is the same thing as sex. It is not, and this is probably the reason why there are a lot of people who are unhappy after they "transition".

+

It is normal for both males and females to have a mix of physical traits from either side. That is genetics for you.

+

You know what is also genetics? The XX and XY chromosomes, you know, the ones that define whether you are male or female, biologically.

+

That is unchangable, so technically speaking sex is unchangable.

+

Gender, however, is a societal construct created by humans themselves, so technically speaking, that is changable.

+

What it is to be a man or a woman (i.e. the way you dress, and otherwise present yourself) is however, interchangable.

+

In summary, if you are transitioning, please keep in mind that you are changing your *gender*, not sex. You will never be able to change that, and that is okay.

+

Love yourself for who you are. Make the changes you need to make to be closer to who you truly are, in terms of gender, while keeping this in mind. It goes a long way for self acceptance.
