I mean, where's the evidence? I think that transsexuals for whatever reason really, really WANT to be the opposite sex, and so convince themselves that they ARE the opposite sex. But how could you know that you were 'born' another sex from the gender you were born into? Gender is not this fluid, nebulous, amorphous thing, despite what many people will tell you these days. It is set in stone. That's not a judgement, just a biological fact.
Hey, if you have effeminate features, or simply like looking and acting like a 'woman', then by all means go with it. It doesn't bother me, and you have the right to live as you choose and modify your appearance as you see fit.
That said, to decide that you ARE the opposite gender from what you are... I just don't buy that. Where is the scientific evidence for this? I read somewhere that brains in transsexual women may in some aspects be more similar to womens' brains than mens'... however, to state that because of this they ARE woman, is wrong.
