There're two plausible causes of gender dysphoria/transgenderism that I'm aware of:
1. Internalised sexist gender role stereotypes (eg a boy thinking he is more like a girl on the inside).
2. Free floating unhappiness/existential anomy being mis-attributed to transgenderism (eg somebody thinking: "I'm just not happy/feel weird/don't feel I fit in....I know, I must have been born in the wrong body! That's it!")
The head of the UKs only NHS transgender clinic resigned fairly recently due to blinkered pressure from "pro-trans" advocacy groups to "diagnose" transgenderism and prescribe hormone treatment/surgery for every case of presented gender dysphoria - with clamouring hysterical calls of "TRANSPHOBIA!" and the consequent suppression of less....invasive treatments/diagnoses. A sorry situation with no clear remedial exit door I think. And no, I do not think it's possible to be "born in the wrong body."
