This is an interesting and complex topic as the same time. Made me remembered someone who said he is a girl born in a boy's body. Which if to translate it literally, it could be his soul is a girl and the body is a boy, that is for those who believe in the "soul". :)
I have also read somewhere before that it is considered a defect or a disease and that the foods we consumed could be one of the cause as there were lots of chemicals that might be present on the modern foods. (no offense or anything about saying it a disease as I just read about that, forgot the source.) :)
In this article, it gives more possible causes and insights about how could one determine his/her real sexuality. The brain is really a complex thing to analyse as it could still be different from one person to another no matter how similar their experiences or attitude, as there could be no exactly alike in this world.
It really might be a combination of things as mentioned, environment, upbringing etc. :)
Hello @zararina :)
Thank you for taking the time to read and leave a comment. I am pleased to hear you find this topic interesting. Me too! And, as well as you, I also think it is complex. Not only in itself, but also in how it is perceived by others.
It is great to see that is how you see this post! There are a lot of explanations out there, many different way to try to make sense of why some people are transgender. And as long as don't result in prejudiced opinion I don't mind them. However, it is also important to be open to what science has to say about it :)
All the best for you.
Have a great week ahead!
