Civil servants who apparently flunked biology. One cannot “become female” no matter what process one undergoes. One is either female at conception, or not. I’m astonished that phrase was used.
Of course, that raises the question of just what one does become, when one undergoes or at least proposes to undergo various procedures — and which procedures accomplish what, exactly, in the steps along that path of becoming.
It’s not so much “woman” that needs further detailed definition as it is “transwoman.”
Surely a TW is not just a man who’s changed his name and who might, one day, when he gets around to it, undergo some procedure or other.
