A transition from male to female or female to male is a process that takes place over a period of time — in some cases, several years.

When a non-trans person asks a transsexual person if he or she is "done" with transition, the implied question is whether or not that person has had genital surgery or SRS (sex reassignment surgery). However, those thinking about asking this question might consider whether or not they would ask a non-trans person about his or her genitalia in a similar situation.

good article, now if only my parents would read it.

I never said if only my parents would find it. Might help to not take such an attack stance next time before asking.
