This need to make completely totally utterly sure what one’s gender is reminded me of recent discussions on this blog:
Just in case somebody suspects that these eggs have been laid by a one of those male hens, the seller insists they come from a female hen.

Well maybe there are eggs from chickens of the female sex but who self-identify as male!
Although hembra has a physiological connection, doesn’t it? My silly joke would only work in the picture if it said “gallinas femeninas,” right?

Actually, they do; gender determination in chickens is even more complicated than it is in Humans:

Why there’s no trans hen? 😉

What makes you think there isn’t? There are gay and lesbian hens.

There’s gay and lesbian hens, but trans hens, I don’t know how it would be possible nor how you could verify that.

There’s intersex hens, though.

I self-identify myself as a female hen. Other female hens MUST accept that I go inside their chickenry!

Actually a current meme in Columbia is that meat from estrogen hormone fed chickens (female :)) is turning boys gay! Check out the video below where Columbian model, Natalia Paris, is explaining this Latin American crisis. Comments?

I’m completely totally utterly and hugely opposed to gender-segregated schools, colleges, or universities. I’ve seen the products of their “upbringing and education” and it’s just horrible.
