Transwomen firsts 'as women' and list topping

I am interested in instances of transwomen who have been reported as the first 'women' to do something, or who are now high up or top women's success/achievement lists.

So for example, a poster on another thread mentioned this: Introduced on Today as first woman infantry soldier on front line. Only later in programme was it revealed the person concerned was a TIM. Papers say had only been taking hormones for a very short time but not mentioned by BBC. I complained at the time.

This article from a few years back says that the highest paid 'woman' CEO in America is a transwoman:

Also interested in any instances of transmen firsts/list topping

Anyone else spotted anything?

Ha it was probably me with the ‘first female infantry’. Still bitter.
