Transgender can seem different and scary, but it’s not once you understand it & learn about people who identify as Trans. Want to understand it? One place to start is by reading chapter 11 in the book Far From the Tree by Andrew Solomon. (1/many) Here’s another story. Not about transgender but about how it is often impossible to assign a sex at birth. Ambiguous genitalia is biological but makes it impossible to easily define a person's sex. Neither can genetic testing make a conclusion about someone’s sex/gender. (2/32)
