Do some research. Transgender people are born trans.

Lol, I didn't realize Barack Obama, who's married to Michelle Obama, was gay.

Being trans doesn't mean you don't know what gender you are. It means you are sure of your gender, and you are sure it's not a gender that society finds acceptable in relation to your biological sex.

The intent of the far left has always been to destroy the finest military on the planet. Sadly it looks like the sexual deviants are achieving their goal.

I've seen some brain dead folks flying F15E aircraft daily. Hell, mentally ill is a leg up on most pilots

A Sex Difference in the Human Brain and its Relation to Transsexuality.

By J.-N. Zhou, M.A. Hofman, L.J. Gooren and D.F. Swaab
© NATURE, 378: 68-70 (1995)
Transsexuals have the strong feeling, often from childhood onwards, of having been born the wrong sex. The possible psychogenic or biological etiology of transsexuality has been the subject of debate for many years [1,2]. Here we show that the volume of the central subdivision of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis (BSTc), a brain area that is essential for sexual behaviour [3,4], is larger in men than in women. A female-sized BSTc was found in male-to-female transsexuals. The size of the BSTc was not influenced by sex hormones in adulthood and was independent of sexual orientation. Our study is the first to show a female brain structure in genetically male transsexuals and supports the hypothesis that gender identity develops as a result of an interaction between the developing brain and sex hormones [5,6].


Investigation of genetics, gonads, genitalia or hormone level of transsexuals has not, so far, produced any results that explain their status [1,2]. In experimental animals, however, the same gonadal hormones that prenatally determine the morphology of the genitalia also influence the morphology and function of the brain in experimental animals in a sexually dimorphic fashion [6,7]. This led to the hypothesis that sexual differentiation of the brain in transsexuals might not have followed the line of sexual differentiation of the body as a whole. In the past few years, several anatomical differences in relation to sex and sexual orientation have been observed in the human hypothalamus (see [6] for a review), but so far no neuroanatomical investigations have been made in relation to the expression of cross-gender identity (transsexuality).

TGmeds

Here's just one article that points to transsexuality being a result of the hormones in utero affecting both the brain and the gonads, but affecting each one to a different degree, and thus leading to a mismatch in gender identity and organ makeup.

There are tons of other articles online that I can't access cause I use a screen reader. (This is the only one I could find in a format I can read.) Feel free to do some research yourself.
