Best Answer

Many men and women feel strongly they are physically a different sex than they are mentally and emotionally. They feel they are a man or woman trapped in a body of the opposite gender. This dissonance, called gender dysphoria, is often so profound and uncomfortable that many individuals experiencing it desire to be surgically and/or hormonally altered so they may physically resemble the sex they feel they are, which is the opposite of their physical appearance.

You just have to know how you feel, if you identify as male, female, or a mix thereof. There is also some debate over whether the term should be 'transgender' or 'transgendered person.'
