Update.--Correction to last paragraph, my mistake.
Original Post.--The difference between (trans)women and other transgender women, meaning cross-dresssers, transvestites, etal, is the illusion. Women, genetic and trans, don't hide behind the illusion of their sex and gender.
Makeup and clothes makes them pretty or even beautiful, but it doesn't change what's underneath, a woman. All the rest of transgender women hide behind the illusion of makeup, clothes, behavior, mannerisms, etc. to appear like women.
But at the end of the day, they're not women underneath. That's the illusion they must have to pretend to be women. Women, genetic or trans, don't have to hide behind the illusion because they're always women.
And that's the differnce between the illusion of gender and the reality of it. Women, whether genetic, intersex or trans, just are. All others need the illusion to be, and only for awhile.
