TS people don't identify as TG anymore

A big problem with the idea that TS people no longer identify as TG is that it's a demonstrably fallacious idea. The National Gay & Lesbian Task Force recently published the largest American trans study ever with more than 6,000 respondents. In this study, they actually asked how we self-identify. Care to guess how many self-identified with the term "transgender"? Ninety percent. Yup; as in almost everyone but a small minority.

This has already been posted about and the thread was promptly locked.

Please let this dog die.
So it is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you can win a hundred battles without a single loss.
If you only know yourself, but not your opponent, you may win or may lose.
If you know neither yourself nor your enemy, you will always endanger yourself.

I'm locking this one, too, at least temporarily. There's been too much strife about all of this lately.
