The psychology world believes it has to do with the fact that the sex organs which dictate hormones, which dictate a lot of an indivduals features is the problem. Your mind developes after the sex organs so if there is a slip in the gene expression compared to the rest of the DNA then u have a person in the wrong body.

well, that is certainly an interesting question! haha. i suppose that you could be right, but then, we must define what a "man" and what a "woman" is. there are the obvious physical differences, and then the sometimes-not-so-obvious hormonal differences. while we do all start out as female, there is a definite change that occurs in men. i mean, just look at the Y chromosome. i mean, it's an excellent thought, and i'm no one to disprove it, but i think that instead, i might say:\n\nmales and females start out as a similar form with female-like qualities in the womb, but then, as development takes place, the sexes differenciate.\n\nbut that's my thought. haha. good question!

transexual women are women. that does not make you gay or them gay if they like men because they are women. even if they still have the penis it will eventually be turned into a vagina and they will be legally women as well.

I can't remember where I read this, but it's a good defination.\n\n"Women are rheostats, men are light switches."\n\nA woman's committment is far more involved than a man's so they can afford to be more cagey than a man.\n\nOne could say it's a woman's prerogative, but you should always approach an encounter with the mindset that it may go nowhere.

Men have more testosterone and women have more estrogen. Estrogen actually causes breast tissue cells to multiply. The more fat a person has, the more estrogen present in the body. That is why a fat guy or one with a high body fat percentage could start to develop boobs. \n\nAnother interesting fact... the more estrogen in the body, the less of a sex drive.

So what will they do, I know there are people born with both organs of male and female.. How will you do this? Very interesting...

Gladly!\n\nA transgender individual is one who does not fit into traditional definitions of gender (gender being the way one looks and behaves).  There are many 'varieities' of transgendered people, so to speak, from those who feel they embody both masculine and feminine characteristics and hence aren't truly one or the other, those who feel they are both, neither, or are a 'third gender', so to speak, some cross-dressers and other folk who don't necessarily think of themselves as men or women in the way that society defines men and women.  They do not alter their bodies with surgery or hormones, however.\n\nTranssexuals usually have gender dysphoria, where they feel a mind-body dissonance (that they were born in the wrong body), and they take steps to remedy that with surgery and hormones.  Oftentimes transgender individuals will become transsexuals, and some transsexuals, even after their transitions, will realize that they are transgender, and that although they love and prefer their new bodies, they still have traits of each within them (for a wonderful discussion of this, read some of Kate Bornstein's work).\n\nHope that helped!  A lot of people confuse the term- I'm trying to set them all straight, but it will take a while . . .

Yes, this is called gynecomastia and can occur in men who take female hormones (for whatever reason) and some other medications (such as cimetidine and spironolactone). This can also happen in patients with several disorders: chronic liver disease, hyperthyroidism, testicular tumors, klinefelter's syndrome, and many more.

Man breasts can be due to a few things, one is being too fat, the other is hormonal ( testosterone converting to estrogen) and you may need an anti estrogen to neutralise this, medical forms include nolvadex.(used by bodybuilders)\n\nI have put a link in for herbal anti estrogen ( have never used it though so cannot give a recommendation for this site)\n\nHope this helps

I dont think that this means the world is going crazy, it means there are people who truley believe that they were born in the wrong genders body. It is hard for alot of us to accept the thought that someone might want to have their penis removed, or breasts removed, or penis attached, but its not us that have to deal with the turmoil that these people go through thier entire lives. I used to think as you do at one time, until I met some transexuals and got to talking to them. I now understand better what they are going through. You might try to do the same.

They dont care if they have "magical semen" or not.  People who get sex change didnt feel conforatable as the gender they were, so they did something about it.

I remember hearing it this way:  (in layman's terms) When we are in the womb, the genetics that determine whether we will become a man have not "kicked in" yet. At that time the mammary glands are beginning to develop. Then the "male" codes kick in and stop the process after the nipples have developed. They then become just decorative.

Funny, I'm not a lesbian or anything but I think a woman's body is much sexier than mens' bodies. They look a lot softer and have lovely curves.

I supose a shemale could be a genetic abnormality, a man who develops breasts during puberty, but generally a she-male is a guy who is a pre-operative transsexual, who has taken hormone shots in order to grow breasts, but has not yet had his penis alterd, or a vagina formed.\n\nI don't think any of them burn their mothers.

It's more than an issue of psychology. I beleive it's genetic. For a man transform to a woman, first they have to dress up and pick up the manner of a woman while taking hormones for a few years. And I'm not talking about those drag queen exaggeration of being a woman. Just normal woman. They have to constantly go for counselling. The hormone will soften their face and body to become more like a woman's body.For woman to man, they start growing facial beard. Usually they have to wait for at least 2 years for the final operation. Just to make sure their conviction of changing their sex are real. Thus the term pre-op transexual and post-op transexual. The pre-op usually include breasts implant as well. The surgery require to remove the testicles. But in order to maintain the sensation of the man made virgina, the penis will be buttefly and inward into a man made virgina so at least during intercouse they maintain sensation. For woman to man, part of their thigh or buttock are carve out to make a shape of a penis and same by using the sensitive part like clitoris and labia around the shape of the penis.Being a transexual is not a trend or a fad, it's a life long identity struggle. its a difficult journey even after the operation. they have to take hormones for the rest of their life. The lucky one they get it done early in their lifes. but most either in their late 30's or perhaps in their 40's. It's an expensive operation not to mention painful physically and emotionally. They do not  do it out of pleasure, just to have a finality on their identity.
