There are only wiring patterns that tend to develop because of hormone levels during fetal development and early childhood development, in which you can see different activities/connections in the brains of women on scans, versus those of men. Like all things in biology, it is not a binary solution-set, but a range of variants.
It has been shown in initial testing that people claiming transgender "feelings" tend to have the wiring-pattern described, above.
I will link you to one example; my Google search turned up several. Do your own homework next time.

But more importantly, why does it matter whether it's hard-wired for us to accept them as they are? Even if it was socially-acquired, or some other sort of issue... WHAT DOES IT MATTER? It's clear from the existence of Gender Dysphoria that it's traumatizing to them to be treated as society has taught us to treat them, based on birth sex, and they deserve not to be traumatized.
Fuck off with the attitude, I never asked you to help me, you did so of your own will. I asked a question, I didn't ask for your shitty attitude.
It does matter if it's something they were born with or not and if it can be remedied, not for the rest of us, but for them, I would think. I couldn't give two fucks if a man thinks he's a woman or viceversa, it doesn't affect me in the least.
Nobody is talking about you as an individual, but in a bigger sample rate. THEY ARE affected by society negatively as a whole as a bigger sample of MORE humans because far too many treat them like shit.
Same selection bias and sample rate error some use with economics and guns. You personally don't care, but you are still only one sample as part of a bigger sample. Same stupid reason some moron will look out the window at snow and deny climate change.
Great that you don't care because it doesn't affect you, FANTASTIC. But other bigots do care and you are not the only person in the world. Those assholes DO affect LBGT even if you don't care yourself.
