This is all irrelevant, because the issue here is sexual identity. Sexual identity is not strictly determined by chromosomes, and sometimes a persons sexual identity is mismatched with their biological sex. Nobody really knows what causes the mismatch, but it clearly happens, and accusing people of being degenerates because of it is absurd.
Science doesn't accept "because some people say it CLEARLY happens" as a valid basis for a theory.
Again: why should a wish be considered a valid basis for truth?
This isn't a scientific theory, it's a simple observation. A person's sexual identity is whatever they feel it is; nobody else is in a position to determine the "truth" of these feelings. There may or may not be something biological that determines identity, but that's beside the point. If people feel there is a mismatch between their sexual identity and their biological sex, then there's a mismatch between their sexual identity and biological sex. If that sounds like a trivial statement, that's because it is.

So you assume that she's a degenerate because you don't know what the whole story is?
My question was valid.
"I am firmly of the view that anyone who would have themselves mutilated to change their gender is a degenerate" is not a question.
