The term 'trans' may one day water itself down to being meaningless which is maybe not such a bad thing. As our society develops a higher tolerance for diversity we may lose our instinct for labeling everything in sight. Instead we will just see people being people and leave them be.
Even now it is used so liberally that it brings up arguments among people including those who are gender variant. It is like a purity test which thankfully has lost much steam from its original heyday when it was brandished as a weapon. Transsexual women would sometimes have vitriol infused exchanges regarding their authenticity.
It turns out that human beings are odd and complex birds with all kinds of motivations which drive them. Something that makes tagging them all the more difficult.
