if you're taking about the person in the OP picture it does such a person obviously proves it's not so easy to tell. I'm not actually too big on transsexuals myself honestly, but I have a very specific disdain for people like you who feel it's so easy and normal to make light of a person's honest and earnest hard work and effort towards something that matters to them. Are you so petty that you could see someone go so far for something and then still refuse to acknowledge them, even though you'd lose nothing by doing so, just because you're not comfortable with their choices?

I refuse to acknowledge that they actually changed genders, because they didn't. It's not something you can actually change. I will call them their preferred pronoun if they're generally respectful and not in-your-face about any of it, but I don't think a man can become a woman.

obviously they can on a physical level if you met the person in the picture there's no way you'd be able to tell. Leaving the determination to that of the human mind which again I don't think you know enough about to state this so confidently. There is actual real science not based in feelings and nonsense like gender studies but based in the way the brain functions as basically a chemical computer.
you've done nothing to argue against your ignorance on the topic, unless you actually have at least looked into the research on these things on a psychological and chemical level, you're really just being petty and rude because you yourself aren't comfortable with the idea and no other reason. You don't know and you don't want to know, so I don't see why you wanna be so arrogant about it. Why would anyone treat you respectfully if you have no intention of returning that respect at all?
