Yes, and the struggle for trans acceptance, I think, provides another angle on the "making gender matter and not matter at the same time" problem. You have the "gender is fluid" camp, and the "I have the right to be accepted as my inborn biological gender" camp, and the two make an uneasy alliance, if they make one at all. Califia's _Sex Changes_ covers that pretty well, though, IMO.
