I'm really not trying to be funny here. This is something that has bugged me every since I watched this special called Switching Sexes: The Aftermath on the Discovery Health Channel the other night. I am in no way trying to make light of this subject. What I don't understand is the how and the why. How does a six year old boy know that he was born in the wrong body? Children don't know anything about gender until it's taught.
The thing I don't quite understand is what "feeling" like a woman/man feels like? Heck, I'm a woman but I don't wake up thinking..gosh, I feel like a woman today. It just is what is. Is it possible to feel trapped in the wrong species as well? Could a person wake up and say, I'm so tired of being a human, I feel like an alligator or a giraffe today? Why are these conflicted people limited to male and female?
