Is she a she, or is she a he, or is he a she, or is he a he?

Restroom, no. There are stalls. Locker room, I still think no. I have never really been the type to strip all the way down when changing into gym clothes, so no one would see anything, anyway.

Ddi you see where anytime fitness kicked out a lady who complained that a "man" was changing in the ladies locker room. Believe it was actually a woman, but dressed like a guy or whatever.

All sounds too much like the song Lola...

It was planet fitness and it was a man who dressed like a woman and used the women's locker room.

I could see how this would be uncomfortable for a woman. Maybe we need to put genitalia on bathroom doors instead of male and female silhouettes.

Correct. The term "transgender" is just another feel good euphemism created to "mainstream" and legitimize being a male and dressing like a female or vice versa.

Frankly I don't give a shit how anyone dresses or feels about themselves but if you're born with a penis you are a male even if you wear make-up and prefer sucking dicks. And if you have a vagina you may dress in flannel shirts, prefer butch haircuts, and suffer from penis-envy but you're still a woman.

^^I believe there is a scientifically indisputable arguement for that,.... no matter how one dresses or whether they have a sex change operation, genetically you will always be what you are.

Social acceptance of alternate sexuality is another matter.

This. Just because your chop off or add a body part, doesn't mean your chromosomes etc say you should or shouldn't have that body part. Also bone structure etc is different, hence why we can determine the sex of a unidentified body just by looking at the bones.

Agreed.

Sports Illustrated wrote a gushing article that previewed American athletes who were aiming for the 2012 Olympics - the kicker was that they were female (sex) who "presented" as male, and wanted to be called "he" and use the men's room, the whole shebang, pardon the expression - EXCEPT when they wanted to compete for their country as a woman, because otherwise they would be at a distinct disadvantage if they were to compete by gender.

So basically, gender is a choice.
