If you're going to discount any possible psychological explanation for the perception of being "in the wrong body", I guess this is the best we'll do.

Are there any telltale signs, like a particular neurochemical being out of balance? I mean, can you imagine going through permanent surgery when just an appropriate medicine would have corrected the disturbing perception of being "trapped in the wrong body?"

Yeah it's called being a sociopath.

Glibness and Superficial Charm
Grandiose Sense of Self
Feels entitled to certain things as "their right."
Pathological Lying
Has no problem lying coolly and easily and it is almost impossible for them to be truthful on a consistent basis. Can create, and get caught up in, a complex belief about their own powers and abilities. Extremely convincing and even able to pass lie detector tests.

Poor Behavioral Controls/Impulsive Nature
Rage and abuse, alternating with small expressions of love and approval produce an addictive cycle for abuser and abused, as well as creating hopelessness in the victim. Believe they are all-powerful, all-knowing, entitled to every wish, no sense of personal boundaries, no concern for their impact on others.

Irresponsibility/Unreliability
Not concerned about wrecking others' lives and dreams. Oblivious or indifferent to the devastation they cause. Does not accept blame themselves, but blames others, even for acts they obviously committed.

Criminal or Entrepreneurial Versatility
Changes their image as needed to avoid prosecution. Changes life story readily.

all i know is that some children are born with either unclear gender, or are hermaphrodite, etc. i read or saw on tv that all fetuses start as 'female' and then change about the 5th month if they are supposed to be a boy, based on chromosomes. but what if something doesn't quite go right? there are a variety of causes i guess for things like this, where gender is unclear, or both are evident. so, the doctor takes a shot-he has a 50/50 shot of being right-or being wrong.
all i know is, instead of people discounting something because it's odd, try to find a bit of empathy. imagine walking a mile in those shoes. it's got to be horrible. but then, i'm not someone who thinks your taste in the same or opposite sex is a choice, anymore than i think someone just decides, hey, i think i want to be a guy now. you're asking for all kinds of scorn and abuse by doing so-who the hell would just want to go thru that on a whim??

Why do people tattoo their cocks?

easy: because no one noticed it or better yet ever took notice before????

if that's wrong, second guess: Because it was a white canvas that would seem to convey being larger with coloring?
