FYI, for aspiring allies… pls don’t refer to trans people as “transgenders”, “transes”, “tr@nnies”, etc, even as a joke.
As with many marginalized groups, we can call ourselves certain words, for various reasons, but you should not.
“Trans people” or “trans folx” (or folks) are just fine.

For the last one, I like “gender confirmation surgery”, or just naming the surgery (e.g. vaginoplasty), but that’s just me.
