There was an npr story a while back about a person who was touted as being the first woman gondolier in Italy. It turns out that this person thought of themselves as a man, and so never liked the attention he was getting as the first "woman" gondolier. The story convinced me that there are people out there with the body of one sex, but the brain of the other. I really think this person has the brain wiring/chemistry of a man but the body of a woman.
- dopamean 8y agoI heard that story as well. It was fascinating. Despite knowing many transgender people that story did more for my understanding of a trans person's experience than almost anything else. As you said. It really seems like a case of a brain in the "wrong" body.
