Why do people think Bruce Jenner is too old to get sex reassignment surgery
People have been making a joke of it, saying that they think it's pointless of him to do it, because no man will find him sexually attractive at 65, despite him saying he's attracted to women, and people still being able to have love lives in their 60s. I find it offensive because people are basically saying the whole point of having a vagina is to be found sexually attractive by a man, and get fucked by a penis, when it's only a possibility, not something that needs to happen in order to justify having that organ. A sex change is a sex change. He can afford the best medical care, so people shouldn't see it differently for him to have one at 65 than if he had it at say, 20.

People say this to all adult transgender people because the belief is that when you are a certain age your body is fully formed and cannot change.
Which is not true at all.

People they are assholes.
People who think that are assholes.
For exactly the reasons you describe: Being a woman isn't just about being sexually available and of interest to men. Simple as that. People who don't - or refuse too - understand that a person's gender may mean far more to them then that, are either idiots, or assholes.
It's tempting to make it more complicated than that, but just it's not complicated.
