there are a couple actual trannies in the book but the glowie just dresses up like a woman because the glowies in that universe have a thing for putting their agents in disguises that look nothing like them.  my irrelevant opinion: it's a very deep book that delves into the human experience from many different angles, made all the better by its utter disregard for political correctness. most people who fail to appreciate it are just too dumb to understand it. i know because i was one of them at first. if the word fog is too much for you, try listening to the audiobook, just make sure you have a copy to follow along with the footnotes because without them you will miss a lot of significant details.
