It ain’t a “she”.
How does that matter? If you are beaten should we say he isn’t a she?
I think you miss the point.
Whatever, she/he didn't deserve the beating.
I've seen or met a few transsexuals over the years. Yeah, some of them look weird, and I'd do a double-take if I saw one of them in a women's bathroom.
But IMO they don't deserve to be beaten up for their weirdness.
The animals who did it deserve to be strung up for what they did.
And the other animals who stood by and watched deserve something too--not sure what--but surely not kudos.
