I was talking to a person who says they are a woman trapped in a mans body. "She" says that she was born with xyx chromosomes instead of just xx or xy. She says that while developing as an embryo in the womb, it caused the hormones to change her body into a boy, but not her mind. I know there are really people who feel like this, and I'm not out to debate about how right or wrong it is, or whatever. what i want to know, is if its possbile for that scenario to happen with ones genes and development as an embryo. how do 3 gender chromosomes get passed instead of 2? how does that effect development? is it a real genetic malfunction? please only educated answers, im looking for fact, not opinion. thankyou.
