Gender Dysphoria, 3

 

Interestingly, gender dysphoria is seen in children during childhood, though many children do not end up with gender dysphoria in adulthood. Sometimes, for example, a very bright and forward-thinking girl will believe that if she were only a boy, there would be more opportunities for her—a rather sad commentary on societal expectations and equality. It is important to recognize that not all transgender or gender diverse people experience dysphoria. My observations are that if a little boy wants to dress in female-style clothing and a little girl wants to dress in male-style clothing, wise parents make very little comment and let them be. Studies show that typically the majority of such children—once they reach adulthood—decide they are happy with who they are. My opinion is that deciding to undergo the extensive gender reassignment surgery and a lifetime of hormone therapy more properly belongs to brains in their late twenties, when the brain is more mature. It is a decision not to be undertaken lightly.
