It’s Impossible to Deny Sex While Being Trans

I just don’t understand why transphobes insist

That the very people

Who go from one gender to another

Trapped by the reality of the sex

They were born as

Are somehow in denial of sex

It’s almost as ludicrous as the idea

Of a fat person somehow being in denial

Of the weight they carry around daily.

In order to be a transgender person

You have to acknowledge that you were not born

In a body you necessarily identify with—

Some people take steps to change their bodies

To match, at least closer than they did beforehand

What the fuck part of any of this

Involves denying sex

Besides the transphobic idea that

Gender identity doesn’t matter
