I appreciate your attempt to clarify the situation. However, I think it still needs a bit of refinement. I am a postop trans woman who has a vagina. I like it very much. Under your definition of woman, I qualify. Unlike some people born male at birth, I did not hate my extraneous body parts. For many years I enjoyed them. I liked having a penis, or so I thought. However, there was this internal struggle going on which took me a lot of years to resolve. Under your definitions, I’m both a man and a woman. But actually I am just a woman, and I’ve always been one. I do not consider myself a man. I have a woman’s brain, and always have had one. Social standards confused me for a long time by insisting that I was something I was not. I think your terminology needs a little sharper focus.

Eclectic trans woman, terminally curious. Too many degrees. Trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up. Attract stray puppies and social outcasts
