You met someone, made a new friend, and later this person tells you that they had a sex change.
Would you still see them as the person they ARE, or as the person they USED to be? Meaning...if they look like a guy, but used to be a girl..would you still treat the person as "one of the guys" or would you start acting differently around them, because you now see them as a "girl"?
Same goes for girls that were born as men. If she told you that she used to be a man, would you try to make her "not be a sissy" and expect her to behave like a guy, or would you still treat her like a girl, and for example: hold doors open for her, lift heavy things for her, ect?
This is for a project I'm working on in college for our equality alliance. This semester's focus is on transgender education. I am also a transsexual myself.
