Serious question: once someone transitions, aren't they no longer trans? Chelsea manning is female, not trans. Am I wrong?
-
Trans is anyone whose gender doesn't match the one assigned at birth. You can choose to identify with that label like any other, or not.
-
Some people prefer to be "stealth" and blend in, not disclosing that they are trans. For some (like me) it's not a defining characteristic.
-
Think of it like an ethnicity. I was born Jewish and will always be ethnically Jewish even if I don't practice or identify as such.

I am trans. I am also a big ol queer and a mom and a lady techster and a derby girl and million other more important things. Still trans tho
