Can a man clone himself as female?

Cloning is the process through which the a GENETICALLY IDENTICAL offspring (F1) is produced. If a female clone is produced from a man. We see that the 23rd pair of chromosome that determines the sex of an organism is different. The female is XX and the male is XY. They are simply genetically different clearly because the sex chromosomes are different. Therefore they are NOT clones. So the answer is NO because the sex chromosomes are different.
