You would argue that a person has no right to decide which labels they wear ("Don't call me brony," "Too bad you watch MLP I say you are so you are"). By that logic, a trans* person isn't allowed to say they are anything but their birth gender ("I'm a woman in a man's body," "You have a man's body, I say you're a man, you are"). To give one group (trans) self-label rights and not another (MLP fans) would be hypocrisy. As such, by the logic you've already demonstrated, trans-folk cannot self-label and thus are stuck with their birth genders. Don't blame me, folks, @toksyuryel<\/span><\/a><\/span> proved it. If he tries to say otherwise, he negates his own argument on the brony issue and becomes, himself, a hypocrite."}
