Agreed.....to a point. We still have to interact with the outside world, and in relation to that, we are 'defined'.
You have chosen Transgender as your gender label here, for that purpose. There's little escape from it.
I hope you don't mind me picking your brains, but what does that mean? Are you female in your mind, or transgender?
If female, do you begrudgingly use the label 'transgender' due to how the outside world may view you?
If transgender, do you include your experience of physical transition to identify your mental/emotional self.....or was there a mental/emotional transition too? ---(Were you ALWAYS female mentally & emotionally?).
When would you be happy to define yourself as female?......if that's what you'd want?.....if that's what you think the outside world should just accept that as what you are?
Sorry for the headache.
