As far as many are concerned, there are only two sexes, male and female. But then, more and more people are entertaining the belief that people can be intersex and fall outside of these categories. For transgender people, it is a reality that has had them identify as trans men, trans women, or something else.
For several reasons that range from her physique to her mannerism, people have had reasons to wonder if Megan Thee Stallion is a trans woman. There is no concrete piece of evidence that validates the suppositions about the rapper being transgender.
