Just completely wrong. How do you know what happens when someone feels they identify more with a female or male side and decide to follow that path? It may lead to gender reassignment and if you've seen some of the results you would not say they don't look like women (can't speak for ftm I must admit). If a guy feels like putting on women's clothes and looks pretty good in them, and could "pass" you're trying to say people will still know he's a man? They may, if they look hard, but they may not. Who says guys can't mimic female mannerisms? Women certainly can do the reverse.

And anyway, even if people DO know he's a guy, what's to stop a guy (with or without hormone treatment) starting to speak softer, be more in tune with his surroundings, more open about feelings, more interested in girly stuff? You can't call it BS because you are not in a position to make that call. You might as well say nobody can be gay. Give me a break.

Edit: this guy is the same one who with his first posts began slagging off Hendrix and causing controversy. Are we witnessing the work of a troll, I wonder?
