If we are genuinely striving for a gender-neutral society, we will seriously need to look at how we use the English language in our daily lives. Society today should no longer be expected to answer to gendered terms like "niece or uncle". The sex of a person is not really something that is required in daily conversation.

For this particular question, there is not a direct all-encompassing answer. Certain gender-affirming surgeries can be performed without hormone replacement therapy. Still, there are some that require hormones simply due to the nature of the surgery itself and the effect that it has on natural hormone production. The first port of call for surgeons is the WPATH Standards of Care (SOC), and most surgeons will follow those care guidelines.

Lives and Challenges of the Elderly Transgender Community

Transgender older adults are an often-overlooked demographic in more ways than one. LGBT+ people and transgender people who are now advancing in age faced intense degrees of stigma and discrimination during their youth, and gender identity was pathologized during that time as well. This resulted in many transgender people delaying coming out and transitioning for fear of this discrimination and pathologizing. Nevertheless, they have overcome profound challenges to get to where they are in life, and their fight is not yet over.

Many trans women have delayed transition or coming out in the past due to the stigma and level of personal danger associated with being transgender at an earlier time. The same is true for trans men and women from previous generations.
