Like, so genders are social construct and different from biological “sex”, but identifying as a different “gender” requires surgery to change your “sex”? Is “gender” just personality? I’m so confused

Edit: also, the idea trans-affirming surgery and hormones is also absolutely horrifying to me for some reason; just, ouch

    That makes sense. Even as I was reading your comment I was thinking of it and thought “well if they didn’t have x or y or z surgery that they listed, I think they would still definitely be transitioning into their preferred gender”. I think the word “transitioning” was one of the biggest game changers for me that made me realize that it’s not completely a physical concept. Thanks for the answer, I’m excited to learn more about this topic, I see some good sources in these comments
