    When you say they’re born with the “wrong sex” do you mean they have chromosomes commonly associated with one gender, but have the genitalia of another?

    I’m sensitive to hurting people’s feelings on this issue so just stear clear of ever asking questions or stating opinion on it - plus I’m hardly qualified for the latter. Sadly the side effect of this is that I am completely ignorant. Even more sad: I’d rather be ignorant than a pariah. Too many people getting ostracised for being ignorant.

      The problem is that bigots lean on the “JuSt AsKiNg QuEsTiOnS” narrative so they can waste people’s time providing context and sources just to call it all fake.

      Don’t take it personally.

        Yeah good point I forgot about those…such a damn shame because it also makes it really hard for the honestly ignorant because it’s like “no stfu I actually need to know this!”

      Yeah, that’s what I meant by “wrong” in that. Their genitalia doesn’t match expectation based on chromosomes.
