That denotes wearing "female clothes" or growing your hair out or wearing makeup, which is not the definition of "woman". This was precisely that woman's point I feel.

And that's the problem a lot of trans people face, you're expected to live as a woman to some degree before you can have anything at all medically done. The wait from getting a referral to a GIC to actually seeing a GIC is two years. People who put on womens clothes before having anything done arent actually doing it for fun (unless they're a cross dresser which is something completely different), they're doing it because it is required.
