1298:(~always cite the oldest paper, because you want to give credit to the 'discoverer' instead of the ones who prove it correct ). At the English Knowledge, we are much more interested in making sure that the contents are up to date, so it's best to cite only sources published in the last five to ten years whenever that's feasible. For example, it should be possible to cite last section (about Blanchard's taxonomy) to a single university-level textbook or reference work that tells the whole story, instead of individual primary sources published during the last four decades. As a bonus, if you can cite the whole thing to a single good secondary source, then nobody will be able to whinge about editors cherry-picking sources to push the 'wrong' POV or editors engaging in original research by SYNTHing together sources.

this article is focused exclusively on biology and genetics and has nothing about social, cultural, or environmental factors. Clearly I'm not an expert; I had a general idea of the biological side of gender incongruence and was reading these articles to learn more about external factors, and I was surprised to find there was nothing about that here.

Also, this article over-relies on primary sources; I have tagged many of the sources so that it will be easier to find the individual sources that should be reconsidered and (mostly) replaced. We sometimes see this happening when academics are contributing, because they're accustomed to the academic

I haven't heard of them falling out of usage, but I think these terms are more informative than trans woman and trans man. People who are unfamiliar with the terms may think trans woman means ftm because afab who is trans or trans man means mtf because amab who is trans, even well intentioned people.

I noticed this page makes frequent use of the abbreviations FtM and MtF. Why is this? From what I understand these terms are more casual, slang terms that shouldn't be used in an article about science, or even really on an encyclopedia. They also seem to be falling out of use generally. Would anyone

There is no grounds for a blanket change, although it's possible there are some where it isn't needed. However, we need to stick to the terminology of the sources. "Transsexual" (which "MtF" often appears next to) is a smaller set than "transgender", referring specifically in these sources to those

Simply refer to the kind of people traditionally known as MtF's as "trans women". Also, please note that trans women contrast with cis women, not real women, biological females, or women-born-women.
