    I think you're asking about actual gender reassignment surgery. The thing a lot of people don't understand about transgendered people is a hefty percentage of them, perhaps the majority, never get reassignment surgery and for many, that is by choice.

    I didn't read the original article, but my suspicion is that the employer was ordering her to dress and act as a man rather than anytihng else. But I'm not sure.
