9f course it had been invented. I knew transsexuals in the 80s, people were writing about them in the 70s and gay people a shade older than Crisp called themselves inverts. There have always been some people who felt this way.

Transsexual isn't the same as transgender though. The majority of transwomen these days are what used to be called transvestites. I was asking if transgenderism as it is used these days, with gender identity being the most important thing, with no need to make any physical alteration.

Transvestites never said they were women though. Larping as, part time, yes, but not Actual Women like they do now.
