Is the historian Matthew Dennison transgender?

Apparently no one knows, as clearly Matthew keeps his private life private - which for a biographer of other people's lives demonstrates a strange unwillingness to give future writers the sort of information his career has thrived on. Being married and having a wife with a child is no indicator of his assigned natal gender/sex. Many transgender men (who were born female bodied) marry, and their spouses will have either already had a child(ren), or they will have donor insemination in order to conceive, or they may have adopted children.

What is interesting is that Mr Dennison has not denied what is clearly a common question on the internet. He is entitled not to answer those questions, but, as an out trans man myself with a wife and family, I feel he would clearly gain nothing but respect if he chose to come out as a trans man (if he is one).
