There are many misconceptions about what it means to be a transgender person. There's the cliché about being trapped in the wrong body for example. I'm not sure if I ever felt that I had the wrong body, although I was very naïve about human anatomy when growing up. Not really having the opportunity to play doctor or use similar methods of checking out other kids' naked bodies, I actually used to believe that girls had the same plumbing as boys. Like I said, I was naïve.
