Violet, I really don't know about 'why'of it,but I do perhaps know the basics of the 'what'
My perception is that trans gender people identify with and as a person of the other sex. That such people often live deeply unhappy ,unfulfilled lives. ( I would expect a higher than average suicide rate). Trans genders are NOT gay.
That gender reassignment gives many some peace of mind,and personal validation,allowing them to lead happier, more normal lives.
Violet my dear, try not to let the labels distress you;they are irrelevant. It's perfectly OK to call the scientists a bunch of dumb cunts.
