“Transgenderism” (sometimes called “transsexualism”) is the (false) idea that a person can “transform” or “transition” from one sex into the other.
A person who says that they are “transgender” or “transsexual” (or “trans” for short) is a liar because it is impossible for a person to “transform” or “transition” from one sex into the other.
The sex of a person is based on their chromosomes and is determined at conception when God creates the person.
A person who is a male has at least one Y chromosome (or the Sex-determining Region Y (SRY) gene from the Y chromosome) in the nuclei of the cells of his body.
A person who is a female does not have any Y chromosomes (or the Sex-determining Region Y (SRY) gene from the Y chromosome) in the nuclei of the cells of her body.
The SRY gene is normally attached to the Y chromosome. The SRY gene determines that the person is a male.
In other words, if a person HAS the SRY gene in the nuclei of the cells of their body, the person is a MALE.
If the person DOES NOT HAVE the SRY gene in the nuclei of the cells of their body, the person is a FEMALE.
A normal male person has an X and Y chromosome pair (XY) in the nuclei of the cells of his body.
However, there are several male diseases that a male person could have:
A normal female person has a pair of X chromosomes (XX) in the nuclei of the cells of her body.
However, there are several female diseases that a female person could have:
In order for a person to change from one sex into the other, they would have to change the chromosomes in every cell of their body. Since this is impossible, no one can “transform” or “transition” from one sex into the other.
Therefore, it is a misnomer to say that a person is “transgender” or “transsexual” because in reality there is no such thing as a “transgender” or “transsexual” person.
