Linus where are you seeing this associated with Trans individuals? In thirteen pages of comments I see only one person using trans in anything approaching a remotely confused fashion. Someone else comments on trans but in a reference to Brandon Teena. And I'm not seeing any trans discussion of it on Twitter.

And not to fan the flames, but does anyone know if this individual identifies as trans or not or whether this person was simply preying on younger individuals?

If you are intent on having sex with an individual, of any age, would you not come out as trans assuming your genitalia does not conform to expectations? I would, but I'm neither trans nor male identified so it's easy for me to say.

But this begs the question - which is the bigger moral morass? Lying about your age or your gender (in this case I'm identifying this as a lie because clearly the "victim" in question was unawares that her paramour was not born a boy and did not have male genitalia) in order to get what you want?
