Should I email UT Austin to clarify that I am not transgender?

Please explain this post…on your other thread where you say you are considered transgender.

Is there an advantage in applying as a transgender student for STEM schools?

It’s commonly accepted that woman have an advantage in applying for STEM fields because less of them apply for STEM fields. However, would this advantage still apply to transgender women, assigned male at birth? Would it be more advantageous to just put my gender as Unsure/Questioning? Or should I deny being transgender all together? I am looking to be a math major and physics minor. My top picks are Caltech, MIT, and Princeton. I would be considered a “transgender woman”, but I will deny that if it’s going to get me discriminated against.
