with what the person themselves say. It is hard to see how that is not a transphobic position. But that is not (as I understand it) what Betty Logan has said. Her objection goes like this: Suppose Smith was born male, but in 1979 publicly identifies as female. Smith wins an Grammy award. A source says "He won a Grammy in 1969". So
Knowledge reports that "She won a Grammy in 1969" and cites that source. Betty Logan's worry is that by doing that we are claiming that the source attributed the win to a female, when they actually attributed the win to a male. So the issue is not "Is the source right?" but is "Are we misrepresenting what the source claimed by switching the pronoun, even when we do not quote directly?" She says we are. But I point out that if she really believes that, then she has to accept that a source that says "Sting is going on tour this winter" has taken no position on his gender, thus Knowledge cannot add to the Sting article "

what causes gender identity, but biological sex is not limited to whether or not someone has a penis. It is most likely that trans people are trans because they have the brain anatomy or body chemistry or some other real, non-imagined measurable characteristic of the gender in which they wish to identify, but this has yet to be proven concretely. So okay, we can assume that
Manning has had male external genitalia this whole time, but what about all that other stuff? Because we cannot give every subject a brain scan, blood workup and entirely hypothetical exam based on scientific discoveries not yet made, we should not base Knowledge policy on this information. So what are we to do? Calling Manning male makes a political statement and calling Manning female makes a political statement. We're stuck either way, so we might as well do what we do with every other subject and take Manning's word for it. At least that's polite.
4065:, so while I do think they have informative value if they are being read as (or could reasonably be read as) being instructional they can be removed without loss. To explain my reading, the second sentence ("When there is no dispute....") is merely pointing out that, as is often the case, a person's name is not in dispute and in those cases it is simply true that the person's common name is the name they use for themselves. The next sentence ("Knowledge should use them too.") is just reaffirming the position that the policies listed in the first sentence take. The final parenthetical sentence is explicitly indicated to be an example, and is not a controversial one, so I take it to be informative as well. So while I see nothing problematic about any of these sentences and I do think they could be helpful as explanations, I see no real change in the policy by removing them and so have no real objection to that.
3501:. He lived most of his life as "Ron Artest" and most of the sources for information on his page are to publications that pre-date his name change, and thus refer to him as "Ron" and "Artest" with no mention of his current name. The section on the Pacers–Pistons brawl, for example, uses sources from 2004, 7 years before the name change. But if we are going to take seriously the worry about name changes and verifiability, then we have to ask why is information about a brawl that a source says involved "Ron Artest" on a page for a person whose name is "Metta World Peace". The answer is because we have some reliable sources that Artest was involved in the brawl and other reliable sources that Ron Artest is the same person as Metta World Peace. We do not need to find some new source that says "Metta World Peace was involved in a brawl in 2004". The idea that there is a verifiability issue here is absurd.
8478:. The festival holds an intention that it be for females assigned at birth for political/socio-cultural reasons; trans women simply do not fit into that category. However, there have been edits to remove the implication that trans women aren't female and justified by the WP MOS style guidelines. This seems specious to me. Gender is completely socially constructed; there is nothing innate about it. Female, however, has a variety of associated characteristics that cannot be adapted (reproductive capacity, menstruation, etc.) It seems very odd to define the rule through the exception (less than 3% of women have Klinefelter's or some intense genetic disorder or are intersex). The overwhelming majority of trans women have no genetic disorder and are biologically male. To ignore that is also to ignore the realities associated with female biology that are unique.
8151:
individual in question, the person has been what they identified as until that point in a public sense. UNTIL Chelsea
Manning identified as Chelsea Manning, she was a biological male who every other person on the planet identified as just that. I can happily accept that Chelsea feels as she does and is now identifying as a woman. What I can't happily accept is that this changes the past or that her simply saying "I am now this" makes it so, immediately and for all time past and present. There is no other facet of Knowledge where we would ignore all other sources in favour of the views of the person themselves... Otherwise I could self-identify as the most-notable person on the planet and make a Knowledge article about myself that says everything that I believe myself to be. Why does gender warrant the one and only exception to our standards? -

patients protest is also reason to rely on the medical expert and not the subject. Diagnoses protect those that have the disorder by not allowing others to exploit it. If checking the "F" box on an employment application or school admission triples the acceptance rate, or changes the prison where a criminal is housed, self-diagnoses is entirely inadequate and will stigmatize GID as a fraud. Currently, those that truly have the medical condition need diagnoses and treatment. For
Bradley Manning, he blamed GID for assaulting a female superior, emotional instability and leaking classified documents unlawfully. If it's true that the he has GID and it contributed to that behavior, the bar better be pretty high (i.e. more than his say-so) before he stigmatizes an entire class of persons with that behavior. --

using female pronouns. If the article is well written, people reading it will know she was transgender and thus will have no problem understanding the prononuns used. Jorgensen calleed herself as a child a "boy", which is fine. If the quote is important enough to use, the article can use it. I don't see any problems there. For Twm Morys, I am more confused by the fact that his last name is not spelled the same as Jan's last name (and this is not explained on the page) than I am about his parentage. (And also, I am confused about whether Twm's mother is named
Elizabeth Tuckniss or Elizabeth Morris, as this is not well explained nor does googling help much.) Penny Whetton's youngest son seems not to be confused at all. "My dad's a woman." Yes, she is. Even a child can understand that.
7882:. This isn't rocket science, actually. For most people, their sex and their gender "match". Most people are either both male and a man or female and a woman. But in the case of a transgender person (who has not had sex reassignment surgery) a person can be male and a woman or female and a man. When gendered pronouns in the English language were developed long long ago, the idea that a person's sex and gender might not "match" was not a consideration. So the question, "when a person's sex does not 'match' their gender, which pronoun should be used?" was never thought necessary to ask. But in more recent times, it has become clear that it is a valid question and there are two straightforward answers: (1) Let's have pronouns track sex or (2) Let's have pronouns track gender.
7888:
should track gender. People who are not transgender, but who are sympathetic to the transgender community have generally decided that it is asking less of us to get over the fact that it might sound unfamiliar to us to use pronouns to refer to gender, not sex than it is to ask people to accept pronouns be applied to them that seem alien and false. Furthermore, that female pronouns seem less odd to those of us who are not transgender when a person who is biologically male "presents" herself as a woman suggests that our comfort with pronouns is only superficial, while a transgendered person's comfort with them is quite deep and personal. So both people who are transgender and their supporters have strongly advocated that pronouns should track gender, not sex.

things are not strictly the same and it is not clear which should count). We may wish to make an assumption that gender identity in the past will be the same as in the present. Which is fine, but it is wrong to allow for no exceptions. We should be allowed to take a different approach, for example, in order to respect a biographical account given by the subject, or to avoid content which is confusing or ends up air-brushing history. I don't think it would be OK to write: "Mr and Mrs
Manning were delighted at the birth of their daughter and decided to name her 'Bradley'". This may or may not be a useful addition to the article, but that is not the point. The MOS should try its best to cover any content an editor may wish to add.
5531:: While recording someone's gender expression at the time is not an unreasonable goal, and sometimes may be worth expressly clarifying if it clarifies the actions they take, I feel this fundamentally misunderstands not only what it means to be trans, but the actual purpose of pronouns and names. A pronoun is used to refer to a person or thing, not used to describe them. In so far as they do any describing, they are used to describe that person in their current state, even if you are discussing them in past. You would, for instance, say "Mrs. Smith did X as a child", even if she was Miss Carpenter at that time in her life. This is because names and pronouns are used, primarily, to reference a person, not to

people are making here in this section and changed the text accordingly. They did a poor job and now we're stuck with this unclear text that needs to be fixed at some point. But there's nothing special about what those original people thought, I don't think. It's not like we operate under some system of strict precedent or something; we don't need to defer to the original judgment. Opinions there or here about the exact phrasing of these two sentences are massively swamped by the opinions people have expressed in the
Manning RM about MOS:IDENTITY and – though I could be wrong – they're likely to be massively swamped by the future discussion on this issue at WT:AT.
5773:(in cases where the way of referring is in dispute AND a subject has stated a clear preference). So the idea was to make it clear that the self-preferred term is what we use so long as there is no dispute. A month later, in May 2008, an editor made a further revision. This seems based on the recognition that it is rather odd to offer guidance about to do "when there is no dispute". After all, if there really is no dispute, why should anyone need advice on what to do? So the wording was changed from one that offers advice to one that merely states the obvious, although using advice-phrasing resulted in an afterthought final clause:
7334:. If I decide to call myself "Sarah", but the entire world refers to me as "Nick", it is just plain silly for Knowledge to reflect my personal choice and not the viewpoint of THE ENTIRE REST OF THE WORLD. Can someone point to another group of people that get to choose how they are named on WP?!?!?! Are transgendered folk special? Why do they deserve special consideration when we try to figure out what they should be called.........? Now for the record here, I want to say that I think it's a great thing when WP gives some consideration to self-identity, but this is just silly silly silly silly silly. Just silly.
1399:(although different from the Time-reported NLGJA advice), it does suggest that both organizations recognize that switching pronouns based on how people have presented themselves is a valid style when using the historical voice, as an encyclopedia or other documenter of history uses. You can believe (as I think GLAAD does) that a person's gender has not changed, but merely been revealed in a self-identification announcement, but that switching pronouns when writing from the historical voice is still a valid style choice. I might be wrong, but I think this is what both the NLGJA and GLAAD are saying.
595:, not the MOS. I think the title is wrong, but nothing in the MOS says that "Alexis Reich" should be used for the title. (See the section below called "Proposed wording change to MOS:IDENTITY" for more discussion of this.) In the body of the article, the name used throughout is "Karr", so I see no problem there. As for the pronoun, sources report that in 2008 the State of Washington officially recognized that she is a woman and issued a driver's license to Alexis Reich under that name, so we have sufficient sourcing to support the use of female pronouns in the article. So I don't see the problem.
8128:; there are indeed people who feel that their gender is fluid. Likewise, there are people who feel that their sexuality (though not necessarily their sexual orientation) is fluid; some people will simply think of those people as bisexual, but a lot of people who feel that their sexuality (in this case, sexual attraction to men, women or both) is fluid don't consider themselves bisexual. I'm also with Darkfrog24 on not understanding how a person's sex changes over time (unless it's what Darkfrog24 mentioned). I've never heard anyone until now assert that a person's sex changes, unless speaking of
6650:: "Whenever possible, ask transgender people which pronoun they would like you to use. A person who identifies as a certain gender, whether or not that person has taken hormones or had some form of surgery, should be referred to using the pronouns appropriate for that gender." Per the AP Stylebook, "use the pronoun preferred by the individuals who have acquired the physical characteristics of the opposite sex or present themselves in a way that does not correspond with their sex at birth. If that preference is not expressed, use the pronoun consistent with the way the individuals live publicly".
8634:. That's why it makes sense to reflect a person's gender as they say it is: because there is no other way to make the determination that is always and obviously better. Neither we nor the news media are experts on this topic nor are we the transgender person's doctor, nor do we have access to his or her birth certificate or driver's licence or medical records. We should respect the limits of our own knowledge. To label someone's gender as different from what they say it is is in fact a highly questionable decision, and in doing that Knowledge would not be privileging truth over kindness.
1267:(2) If there are two (three, really) different views of how gender is determined and whether it can change, then it would seem that Knowledge should follow what the best experts say about it. Thye could be wrong (it happens all the time) but we have no better way of dealing with the matter. As with any content in articles, when we find out we got it wrong we change it. So with gender we follow the best expert advice of the day and if later we find out they got it wrong, we change it then. Correcting historical errors is good, while we all agree that rewriting history is bad.
1490:, a famous Australian motoring and motor sport journalist and race car driver. He married and divorced three times and had children and grandchildren. However, Whettett lived as a woman for two years, before dying of prostate cancer at the age of 72. Seventy years of living as a male followed by two years of living as a female but the policy says that we should apply the feminine pronouns for every aspect of Wherrett's life. I would say that in this case it makes more sense to leave this editing decision to the good sense of the editors of that particular article.
4399:
would agree that the subject's self-identity should have at least some weight in article titling, even if it's subordinate to other considerations and not dispositive. I think that we need to have a broader discussion about this issue before we remove wikipedia's only guidance (I think it's the only guidance? Maybe I'd change my mind if I'm wrong and this actually is addressed elsewhere somewhere). I believe that is the case even though the current wording is obviously ambiguous and therefore open to interpretation perhaps in an unintended manner.
5381:, both of whom, in public and in private, refer to his previous identity as a female as another person. The latter article is a good example of what should be done, disregarding this guideline, but respecting both reality and his self-image. It generally avoids pronouns, but refers to him as "(Heather) Alexander" as a woman, and "Adams" as a man. This guideline should be rewritten to support this article, rather than the article damaged in an effort to follow this guideline. This may be atypical trans self-image, but it's what/who I know. —

reflect the understanding of him that existed at the time. WP:IDENTITY should be modified to indicate that a change in name and gender references should occur only from the point at which the change in the person's identity was expressed. Further, it should make it explicit that a person's chosen name should not automatically become an article title if the person is still commonly known by a former name; the common name should remain the title, with the new name being used in the body of the article from the time that the name was adopted. --
7902:
that realization and even more time before telling others. For a person born biologically male but whose gender is female the same is true. She is a "she" by gender from birth, regardless of biology, regardless of how she presents herself and even regardless of how she understands her own gender at earlier times in her life. Once she knows that she is a "she" and tells the world that she is a "she" it becomes a verifiable fact (for anyone worries about WP:V) that she was always a "she", even when she (biologically) fathered a child.
1505:. This article informs us "Twm Morys was born in 1961 in Oxford, a son to the writer Jan Morris." a phrasing that is potentially misleading, as Jan is Tym's biological father. Take another case, that of Penny Whetton, who is married to a woman and they have two boys. This is the boys' reported reaction to the situation: 'The boys, while being "absolutely terrific" about it, differed in their responses. The older boy was "not all that open about it", while the younger one tells his mates, "My dad's Penny; my dad's a woman."'
5838:
those that the group most commonly uses for itself" In a case where the name "most commonly used" by reliable sources is different from the article subject's expressed preference, this wording would essentially redefine the words "most commonly used" to mean something that they do not ordinarily mean. We would essentially be saying that even if term A is most commonly used by reliable sources, as long as term B is preferred by the article subject then by fiat, term B becomes most commonly used. That's downright
Orwellian.
1258:(1) Michael, it is not helpful to use phrases like "rewriting history on the grounds of ideology." If there are two (three, really) different views of how gender is determined and whether it can change, then there are two (three, really) different views people might have about pronouns. No one will think that their own view is "rewriting history on the grounds of ideology," so for you to suggest that others might be wanting to do that or for them to suggest that you might be doing that is unconstructive.
7009:. The primary thing we go on when looking at people's gender is just that: their gender presentation and self-identification. If asked, I tell people I'm a man, and I appear as a man. It is a rare and privileged minority that get to confirm that my gender presentation and self-identification matches my biological sex. I don't know whether I in fact have XY chromosomes: it is not something I have tried to check. As for sex organs, you'll just have to trust me that it is not a sock stuffed down there.
2218:
a controversial case. But I think we all agree that for 2005 saying "Brown" and "she" is not controversial. Now if new information about something the person did in 1995 were discovered, some say it should be "Brown" and "she" while others say it should be "Smith" and "he" and still others say it should be "Smith" and "she". The problem is how to capture that this is where the controversy lies. I think I'll leave it to someone who does not have one eye on the US Open tennis to try figuring it out.
1319:(5) So the choice of pronouns need not have anything at all to do with what the scientists' current best theory of gender is. We can believe that gender is fixed by age 3, yet advocate switching pronouns based on how a person presents themselves. We also can believe that gender is something that can change in adulthood, but nevertheless think that pronouns should only based on the most recent expressed gender identity. There is nothing at all inconsistent about either, as they are choices of

known best whether or not she was a boy? Has it occurred to you that concealing this fact might completely misrepresent her whole life and her life's work? Stories about people changing their gender and then seeking to change back again should ring warning bells that more may be going on than just a deep-seated desire and belief that the person involved has a different sexual identity than their body suggested. Changing one's gender is a more profound alteration than changing one's name.

8312:""A quick reminder that the question being debated is "Should we really yield to gender identity when one's biological sex is vitally important?". This is not a question surrounding how we should treat transgender peoples self-proclaimed identities in most cases. Instead this is question asking if it is worth respecting a person’s identity when it leads to a very confusing article. The main case of this is Bradley Manning's article which is almost unreadable now.
3555:). But it is easy to imagine the same article without these mentions of gender. If it had been written with no male pronouns and no uses of the word "son" for Robin Thicke, someone who took the gender verifiability question as seriously as you say you and some others do would be forced to say that we cannot conclude that the source believed that Robin Thicke was male and so the Knowledge page cannot say, as it does right now, "Wayne Gretzky had been babysitting

possible. Once you start introducing new names, changing gender pronouns you are compromising the nature of the claim you are representing. There are plenty of other editors who have repeatedly made this same point in the various debates, and you are free to disagree, dismiss, whatever, but the point remains that for many editors the goal is to accurately convey published information, and some of us feel that the guideline as it stands compromises that goal.
2554:"I'm saying that a peace of information being contentious is a reason someone might want to lie about it." That makes absolutely no sense.

(Seriously, if your next post is signed by sinebot and not you, I'm just going to ignore it, as I'll think you're trolling me.)
1284:" It even provides three sources for the claim. So I don't see a reason to think that scientists who disagree are more than a minority view. What the New York Times or CNN seem to imply about gender with pronoun choices is not an expert view on gender, so (as some have argued) doing what the "reliable sources" do is really a question of what you count as a reliable source about the nature of gender. I'll go with scientists over journalists on this one.

to note that
Manning now wants to use the name "Chelsea" instead of "Bradley". But since it is standard within an article to refer to a person solely by their surname, it will be just "Manning" in most of the article as a reference name. And none of that settles or even begins to address the issue of whether or not Manning should be referred to as "he" or "she". That's because her name and her "common name" are separate questions from her gender.
3126:, who have agreed to the recommendations of the NLGJA to refer to Manning using male pronouns during the period of her life that she was known as Bradley? I think your comments are a little ill-considered, and I think it's entirely proper to explore the semantics of the English language, discuss our interpretations of policies and guidelines and consider the advice and practises of various journalist organizations and major media organizations.
1662:. Quoting her saying it might be deemed important because the real content of the sentence reflects her adult feelings about her childhood. But that does not mean we have to agree that her terminology is accurate. If she believes that "boy" tracks a person's sex, but it actually tracks their gender, then she made a simple language mistake. If you are worried that he use of "boy" might be confusing, the information could be presented like this:

then
Knowledge uses the pronouns that go with the newly announced gender as per MOS:IDENTITY. If that means using a name that is more typical of one gender and at the same time the pronouns of the other gender, then that's the result of correctly applying the policies. Since people can have names that are atypical for their gender without being transgender, this is something that already happens in Knowledge articles. No conflict.
8727:, unless the change is adopted by the predominance of reliable sources-- WP is a summary of reliable sources. If they address a person differently after a person has a sex change then that portion of the WP article should reflect those sources accurately.

reason alone it needs to be changed. It sounds like what you're saying is that you want people to misread the policy because you like the misreading. That, to me, is bad policy-making.

I would strongly recommend raising the issue at
3093:, among other things. Yeah, to use the example of the day, we absolutely will need to include in the article about Manning that they spent a lot of time going by a former name, but that's what redirects, aliases, subheadings, and the "Born" part of the infobox is for. I mean go look at Moon Zappa's page, or the page of any of the screen actors and actresses that chose a different name to go by for registration in their guilds.
2446:? The persons statement is enough; it's as good as a statement to the press that they, for instance, like icecream, which, if it were noteworthy, and reported on by a third party source, we would definitely accept as verifiable. Similarly, if someone makes a statement to the press that they wish to be referred to by a particular pronoun, then we would accept that as verifiable. I'm not entirely sure what you are getting at here.
7068:
suspect that we would not, and that there would be no controversy about this. A statement that some BLP subject always felt they were blue-skinned would be a reason to edit the article to say that the subject always felt that they were blue-skinned, but policy would not support editing the article to say that the subject had always been blue-skinned and that was why they were dyeing their skin blue. So likewise with penises.

However, in ordinary speech, "gender" is interchangeable with "sex" and means "the actual state of being male or female." Some kinds of frogs can change gender in this sense, but it is not clear whether or not humans can. Nor are there any universally accepted rules about what counts as changing gender. (Some consider a raised-male person who's had surgery to be a woman and others consider her/him a modified man, etc.)
7050:- *re "Let's not be get caught up in arguments....The ultimate issue is one of BLP" - Complete shenenigans. BLP doesn't tell us to treat folks "fairly". It tells us to treat folks "verifiably".

We aren't in the game of "respecting wishes" in the game of delivering verifiable information.

phase of that person's life. Direct quotations may need to be handled as exceptions (in some cases adjusting the portion used may reduce apparent contradictions, and " " may be used where necessary). Nevertheless, avoid confusing or seemingly logically impossible text that could result from pronoun usage (for example: instead of He gave birth to his first child, write He became a parent for the first time).
6776:"She gave birth for the first time" obsfucates a verifiable fact. Likewise, "He had a hysterectomy" is a biological impossibility. If Angelina Jolie became a man, it would be incongruous to say "He is married to Brad Pitt". MOS:IDENTITY only really relates to matters of self-identity, but once you move from a gender context to a biological sex context, then WP:V requires us to put the guideline aside.

Academics and scientists who specialize in gender identity are in the best position to answer that one, and so far as I understand it they say that

5599:. Cam94509's explanation is great. It's inconsistent with how we handle this issue in non-trans-related articles, it's inaccurate, and additionally, "editors' discretion" is not really a good thing to enshrine into policy with regard to this issue, as we've seen in the number of editors who are poorly informed and eager to push a POV on this issue. –

5436:-sche, I hated the Councillor Smith example when it was first made, but ignored it then. But since you mention it, the example shows what happens when someone avoids pronouns, but does not even bother to try to write well. It does not take a genius to rewrite the passage so that no pronouns are used, but so that it is not ridiculous.

unencyclopedic neologisms that never really took in general usage and thus aren't viable for use here; going with "he or she"/"his or her" would be inappropriate in the context; and making a point of avoiding pronouns altogether turns the text into stilted, awkward and just plain bad writing.

I don't see how one can simultaneously believe that (1) gender is fluid; and (2) Bradley Manning's gender has always and immutably been female and we know this for a fact.

7585:- I think I'd agree with that. Purely speaking from a policy basis, my feeling now is that MOSIDENT supports the "her" pronoun, while COMMONNAME supports the use of Bradley.

As for the "small for his/her age" issue, the problem that you describe can be handled in context. The passage just said that Manning had been raised as a boy. It is likely that the reader will know that Manning was being evaluated using boys' height figures. To be extra safe, it could be reworded

I'm afraid that I totally don't agree with that proposed revision. Making this change would suggest that the subject's self-identity is not a relevant consideration in naming decisions at all, but I disagree. It seems to me that based on the Manning RM that there are quite a number of people who

Personally, I think it would be desirable to express a preference for self-identification in the event of a RS naming dispute. I'm probably going to regret mentioning this, but I think that the RM about Manning is actually a good example of this – if half of the RSs use Chelsea and the other half

You've got to pick one or the other, frankly. As we've seen above, one major organization for LGBT rights has apparently stated that the old pronouns should be used when discussing old news; while I think GLAAD recommends retroactive use of the pronouns in the case of a gender change. Also I think

At this point I need to jump in with a clarification: The word "gender" has about five correct definitions in English. In ordinary speech, it means "state of being male or female" in general with no real implications about biology vs. sociology. "What gender is that kitten? It's female." In the

It depends on what you mean by "gender." If you're using the social science definition, in which "gender" usually means "gender role" (society's rules about what male and female people may do), then yes people can change from one gender to another by changing their names, clothes and behavior.

First of all I would like to thank people for their replies. I think we need to leave aside trying to work out theories of gender, because opinions are so divided. I think we need to see if the policy is adequate. I don't believe that it is. In a field that is so divided, the policy says the

We do have a clash here between the common name by which Manning is known (Bradley Manning) and Manning's identity as a woman (Chelsea Manning). One way of dealing with this clash might be to minimise the use of personal pronouns. For example, the first paragraph could be reworded like

the intended idea is that a dead person's "present" gender is whatever their gender was the day they died, just as we use the name a person had when they died as their "current" name. I'm not sure more of a reword is needed than the one I just made. Do you think it is still unclear?
