We all know that the onerous new "pat down" procedure and checking of electronics, food and books are designed to get passengers into PreCheck and nothing more. Trans individuals seem to suffer more than others at the hands of the TSA.

My question: can individuals who are in the process of transitioning from one gender to another eligible for PreCheck or would they be denied due to conflicts with birth certificates and current gender - or any other reason TSA could come up with to deny PreCheck status.
