"It's not like a man can stuff himself full of hormones and turn into a woman. The genetic code is the decisive factor. When I see a man next to me, how can I address him 'Mrs.'?"

That is a comment from one  Krystyna Pawlowicz, an MP in Poland who, it seems, is having trouble accepting the gender identity of another politician, MP Anna Grodzka, who was designated male at birth and had sexual reassignment surgery a year before the elections.
