It has become quite fashionable for people to “come out” as bisexual while already in a committed heterosexual relationship and nobody seems to challenge them on their obvious superstraightness.
Using a similar approach:
What would legally stop anybody from falsely claiming that they transitioned to present as the sex they were naturally born as in the first place?
Who would challenge anyone’s self-asserted trans identity? Other trans people? Surely that would be internalised transphobia? (sound familiar?)
More specifically, would anyone even try to call out a woman (who falsely claims to be trans) for being naturally biologically female, even if they had evidence?
How would anyone except for a doctor ever truly work it out in a truly provable way? (Maybe they just pass super well?)
As long as nobody is not lying about their gender to anyone, there shouldn’t ever be a way to prevent this lie, and it seems like an extremely easy way to game a very broken system. Since post-transition identity documents would normally only say the gender one transitioned to, all paperwork would look correct too.
Has anyone ever done this or tried to do this? Lauren Southern “became a man” but this would be like if Lauren pretended she was originally a man who then “became a woman” instead.
