A sex organ, or primary sexual characteristic, narrowly defined, is any of those anatomical parts of the body (which are not always bodily organs according to the strict definition) which are involved in sexual reproduction and constitute the reproductive system in a complex organism; namely:
Male: penis (notably the glans penis), prepuce, testicles, scrotum, prostate, seminal vesicles, epididymis, Cowper's glands
Female: vulva (notably the clitoris and labia), vagina, cervix, uterus, Fallopian tubes, ovaries, Skene's glands, Bartholin's glands.
More generally and popularly, the term "sex organ" refers to any part of the body involved in their and/or their partner's erotic pleasure. The larger list would certainly include the anus for either sex, the prepuce, the breasts (especially the nipples) for females, and the nipples for males.
The Latin term genitalia, sometimes anglicized as genitals, is used to describe the sex organs, and in the English language this term and genital area are most often used to describe the externally visible sex organs, known as primary genitalia or external genitalia: in males the penis and scrotum, in females the vulva.
The other sex organs are called the secondary genitalia or internal genitalia. An even wider notion, subjective but always prominently including the genitalia, is erogenous zones.
A gonad is a sex organ that produces gametes, specifically the testes or ovaries in humans.
Organs of sexual anatomy originate from a common anlage and differentiate into male or female sex organs. The SRY gene, usually located on the Y chromosome and encoding the testis determining factor, decides the direction of this differentiation. Each sexual organ in one sex has a homologous counterpart in the other one. See a list of homologues of the human reproductive system.

No - they are physically created to look the same, but since the original genitalia in a trans-gender person has been removed, there is no known way to create the opposite sex genitals and have them work.
Now, a trans-gender person can certainly have sexual relations appropriate to their new gender, but they are functionally sterile - they can't produce any children.

a tranny is someone who dresses like the opposite sex.. i believe you are thinking of a hermaphrodite! or someone who has changed their sex.
hermaphrodites - which have both sex organs!! but they function normally! lol
try not to get them confused.. or u could get hit by a rather masculine female lol.
a person after a sex change.. only appears to have different genetalia.. but do not function completely.. however i think they have made them quite clever nowa days. basically they couldnt have a child!
