I hope other trans people follow Juno Roche, Author of Queer Sex and Trans Power, to this moment of realisation.
Yes, you're authentically trans, as you are actively living as a trans person.
No, you're not a trans woman as that's not in any way "authentic" (as it's not possible).

(Juno doesn't seem at all interested in the impact on women, but this is progress at least!)
I'm guessing this is a change in position for Juno, does anyone know? (What's the book about?)
Is Juno in any way influential? Is this likely to become a more popular view, or is it just one lone voice?
