Chaos in my mind

QuoteHowever, it was interesting to note that these stories were all about boys that wanted to be girls, not vice versa. Hmmm... Is transgender-ness like sexual orientation - natural rather than cultivated, if unintentionally? The metric of measuring transgenderness seemed to be playing with "girl" toys, liking "girl" things - which are defined by society. What do kids know about gender? Which brings us to the question - what makes a woman .woman and a man, man? Apparently anatomy has little to do with it.
