While recognising the undeniably social aspects of gender, they find that gender cannot be completely divorced from our biological underpinnings. Contrary to popular opinion, gender self-identification does not require the denial of either biology or sex. What is needed is a more liberal understanding of our gender concepts, which would prevent us from confusing diversity with pathology. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSteeped in published and personal trans testimonials, \u003ci\u003eReal Gender\u003c\/i\u003e does not seek to provoke or attack, but to unequivocally defend trans realities.
