Stereotype

If a transwoman before and during her transition isn't interested in makeup, dressing up and shopping, meaning presenting as a stereotypical woman and all things expected of woman, can she still be approved for sex reassignment surgery to be what she's wanted all her life, a complete and whole woman?

And even if she is reasonably to easily passable (that age old criteria) and she has no interest for the things woman are expected to be, can she still be called female and a woman? If women have butch dykes, adult tomboys, and even transitioning transmen who keep their vagina, why can't she just be herself too?

Why do transwomen have to be the imagination of women in the minds of medical professionals than the reality of them? It's her life isn't it? Why do therapist and physician get to decide if she's "woman enough", to be approved for surgery despite the diagnosis and treatment?

If she knows what is expected of women when it matters and in public, who cares who she is in private? If she passes as a woman, is accepted as a woman and is legally female, who cares?

The answer is obvious but tell that to the medical community.
