  38. Deception is obviously always wrong, this is an awful story. Trans people should feel comfortable enough with their reality to disclose their gender when they meet someone. Unfortunately ignorant people who deny their existence may actually contribute to another act of deception like this in the future, as trans people feel forced to stay within heteronormative gender requirements and desperately try to pass as a non-trans person (this obviously does not or will ever excuse acts of sexual deception). But please let's remember 99.9% of trans people are nice normal people, don't fall for this sensationalism. Also, these two uneducated women are extremely confused about sex and gender and contradict themselves several times throughout this short and erratic chat, using terms 'biological man', 'real man', etc. Incorrectly throughout. 'Sex' is a physiological condition of existence, set at conception and cannot waiver or change. With the exception of intersex people, it is binary and the terms we use are 'female' and 'male', for people born with vaginas and penises respectively. 'Woman' and 'man' refer to the expression of gender identity, e.g. clothes you choose, speech patterns, social behaviours etc. It is of course very often related to the sex it has been traditionally associated with in our society. I.e. a female usually expresses themselves as a woman, but their is no requirement to do so in a free society where individual rights are valued and where we do not dictate to individuals how they express themselves as long as their not harming anyone. (You feeling offended doesn't count as harm, get over it you snowflake). Gender expression is very different across cultures and is always evolving and changing across time. There is no objective 'real man' and trans people are very real, i.e. people who express their gender differently now than how they have in the past or to the birth sex it has been traditionally associated with in our society. Ultimately gender expression lies on a spectrum between traditionally masculine and feminine on either end and we all fall somewhere along that. I'm a scientist researching physiological sex differences and the that sex is constant and gender is fluid and that they are very separate concepts has been well established in the literature for years now. We can discuss the nuances but the wider more callous debate is over and the answer is as clearly stated above. I hope someone bothered to read this and accepted you are never too old to learn and update your understanding of reality.
