> The ones I hypothesize are actually subject to a delusion of being transgender don't act like that. Their personality shifts radically after transitioning and they behave like an exaggerated caricature of their target gender and have a very difficult time navigating small group dynamics of their target gender.
If they’re on the autism spectrum, though, they’d have trouble navigating small group dynamics regardless so what you’re describing could just be a comorbidity.
