    Except there is no choice involved. Its not “becoming trans” anymore than its “becoming tall” or “becoming gay”. Those are all things you are born with. Now a trans person may choose to medically transition or not; they are still trans either way. “Trans” and “cis” are adjectives and both are things you are born with regardless of what you do about it.

      Also, what you are saying applies to the individual. For the government, and for things such as these sporting events, they will not ‘be’ female until they undergo their transformation.
