If gender is socially determined then why the need for transgender, why not just being who you are without labels.

    Trans people are people whose gender is different than their sex assigned at birth. For most people sex and gender are aligned. For trans people they are not.

      Ok, the why is called trans gender and not trans sex. Gender is fluid so there’s no need for a transition, they are changing sex, no?

        No. They are not changing sex unless they are changing their genome. And even then, probably not.

        Being fluid does not mean something never changes or transitions. It actually means the opposite of that.

        Frankly you seem like you have a grudge and you’re gonna carry it out. This isn’t an unpopular opinion per se, you’re just wrong and not willing to see it.
