@Anon,
Transwoman may have some feminine psycological characteristics and then get a few operations but that does not make them the same as a woman.
And saying so is not hurting their rights as a human being in any way it is just a accurate description of their circumstances.
@Wehpudicabok
Your rightful gender is either a transman or transwoman depending on where you start and finish.
Now i would employ you or anybody else on your personal merits regarding doing the job in question, i would deny you nothing in regards to medical treatment or insurance and i never condone murder.
I read some of the posts on that board the OP i from and one stuck out quite well it basically said that you will not stop social stigma by trying to redefine the dictionary.
Transgenders are now going through the same thing coloured people did but they do not seem to want to accept that they are a transman or transwoman with the equal rights they truely deserve. But are instead trying to force the rest of humanity to see them as someting they are not, ie a natural woman or man.
We did not stop racism by reclassifying all non-white people as white, we did so by showing that all colours and creeds are equal and part of humanity and as such fully deserving of equal human rights.

Science makes the differance.
A transman and transwoman are exactly that, no more and no less just like a black man/woman and white man/woman are accurate descriptions
Example:
A man who also happens to be black.
A man who also happens to be white.
A man who also happens to be trans.
When blacks asked for equal rights did they say they wanted to be refered to as white from now on and treated as such or did they say that they were black proud of it and that blacks deserved the same equal rights as whites?.
