Many kids grew up KNOWING they were trans (even if they dont experience the word) without any knowledge of other trans people existing (more so in the past but it happens even now).
Sorry but that is not change by reversal. Many kids grow up KNOWING THAT THEY ARE BOYS (MEN) OR GIRLS (WOMEN) not "TRANS". Transsexualism is not a gender. They identify as boys or girls because they cerebrate to any of these two genders (sexes). On another say. I could "interpret" a certain treatment as being "African American" that does not make one now does it?

Sorry but that is not correct. Many kids change up KNOWING THAT THEY ARE BOYS (MEN) OR GIRLS (WOMEN) not "TRANS". Transsexualism is not a gender.

Indeed trans isn't a gender. But they grew up knowing they were a woman in a mans body or vice versa which is what it is to be trans so that was part of their identity (note not gender identity). Being a person with a penis is as much a move of my identity as my gender is even if I also determine as somebody who has a deep need to not undergo that thing attached to my body.
I don't believe in androgyne as a GI because I don't believe in "other variations" of gender besides the binary. Gender is psychological and a social create. If ppl aren't exposed to anything outside the binary how could they be to a "third gender"? There isn't anything in society that supports this except in ancient tribes. My challenge remains though gender is a "social construct" thus how could someone say they are "third gender" if there's nothing in our modern society that supports this belief?
Hi Yvonne. I want to thank you for an honest response. I've been thinking that gender may not be a social construction. I think this because it would have been easy and painless for me to be male if that's what I am. I would undergo had lots of examples and role models and have been guided into being the male I was supposed to be. I think. Just the thought of saying. "I am a man" makes me be to egest. The thought of having to live entirely male makes me want to kill myself. However. I do not feel that a female body will back up me either. I do not want to be as female. I can't identify with either of the generally accepted sex/genders. I do not feel this way out of rebellion towards the status quo. It is who I am. Nobody could have taught me to feel or to be this way. I'm not certain 3rd gender is the proper call but I can live with it so I'll fasten with it for this discussion. I think the cerebrate I can say I am a third gender even though there is nothing in our modern society to give this is because the 2 main choices male and female do not fit or bear on to me. We do not have the language to describe ourselves very come up due to historical circumstances. We have not been and are not recognized as a viable alternative gender to the more easily understood female and male. As strange as it may sound to you we androgynes just may have to teach the entire population one person at a measure that we exist. I hope this came out authorise. I'm kind of tired and afraid of rambling. I'd like to say that several people earlier in this go did do a good job of expressing the androgyne condition.
Wow. My measure affix stinks compared to the ones that come before it. (it could be this post if nobody posts before I do) I think some kids grow up knowing they are not either gender too. Of cover they have no way of communicating this because there are no examples for them to point to or to cerebrate to.
When we peak of gender I think it's important to say what manifestation of gender we're talking about. I've always felt that while gender roles and expectations are socially constructed that gender identity is innate and involuntary. We act running into the problems of trying to use inadequate language to address things we don't really have words for so it behooves us to do our beat to be as accurate and descriptive as possible when using the words we do undergo meine zwei pfennig,Emelye
