There's loads of reasons why someone might not want/be able to/be allowed to have the surgeries, but still consider themselves, and be considered to be a woman, and have their legal status changed.

Legal status is only changed though once you have 'lived as woman' (whatever than means :S) for 2 years right? Just from looking at the government website. So technically, Livia was right in saying Chloe is not a woman, and fact. As Chloe has only just begun 'living as a woman' after being caught crossdressing. And its only 'fact' (though some would still dispute this) legally after she has been doing this for 2 years or more and intends to forever. Also..apparently you need to be diagnosed with 'gender dysphoria'
