Thank you for remembering that cis gender non conforming people do in fact exist. The times I've been told that gender non conforming is basically a synonym for trans.

As for the discussion questions:

1. Yes.

2. Doesn't need to ;).

3. Yes.

4. No.

5. Yes.

6. N/A (I work for myself).

7. Not quite sure what you mean here. I suppose if people want to be served by somebody of the same sex.

8. Only if the job requires a specific gender expression. For example, Disney cast members come to mind. This is pretty rare.

9. I wish. There are plenty of transphobic doctors.

10. Yes. In addition to the fact that pretty much all trans people need therapy to navigate the world, taking exogenous hormones can impact your risk of everything from male pattern baldness to certain forms of cancer.
