You were trans before you ever did anything. Treatments do not make us trans.

I’m glad you chimed in. Thank you for your thoughts.

That’s a philosophical position. I’m not sure I agree. I know someone, a cisgender man, who claims to be a trans woman yet has made no physical or other changes in even the smallest way. He/she has kept the same masculine name and no-one, no matter how transphobic, would object to his/her appearance – or even notice anything. Is he/she transgender?
