Dubious claims about clearly non transgenderd people This article lists a whole bunch of people who s transgender status is clearly wrong and others for whom it is highly speculative This isn t a list of people who kinda sorta there s a small chance maybe are transgender The ones who cross dressed for some nefarious deceptive purpose and not as a life style choice clearly can not be classified as transgender and should be removed from the article completely The fact that mythological figures such as Achilles were even added in the first place says a lot about the POV pushing of the people who supported it The only mythological one who might be considered transgenderes is Guan Yin The real life figures who did it to disguise themselves to avoid something e g military service or even to get into something where women are discriminated against They did it for deceptive purposes as well so they can t really be considered transgendered The pope one is laughable and definitely should be removed The one about Joan of Arc is based exclusively on an accustion from a unreliable source If they accused her of being a witch should we have included her in a list of witches too Also I d like to see an authoritative source showing that she was even accused of it as it seems that it s most Wikipedia ripped sites and LGBT websites that site that as fact And what are transvestite tendencies in reference to Ed Wood You need to start citing sources or I m just going to start deleting them That goes mainly for the historical and mythological figurse section Maxwell Klinger wasn t even a real transvestite he only did that so he d get a section 8 and get kicked out of the army Anyone who watched the show knows he would try all kinds of crazy stuff to get kicked out under the guise of being mentally ill This phrase describing the character is also very odd Although a transvestite he loudly denied any charges of homosexuality What s the association between the two Also it appears they re using a warped definition of transgender here I ve never heard a definition that would automatically include cross dressers as if that automatically means they identify with the opposite gender rather than just enjoying the clothes I m sorry but this overly broad and incorrect definition of transgender is obviously an attempt just to make the list as long as possible 28 June 2005 21 00 UTC
