Can someone be born a transsexual?
Yes. Most with transsexualism are born that way, they usually knew they had it before age 6, and they get the surgery to stop having transsexualism. The condition of transsexualism is not the same as the lifestyle of transgenderism. Transgender is mostly a choice and is a fairly recent concept. Transsexualism is a diagnosis while transgenderism is mostly a self-identity.

Why do transsexuals exist?
Well, to put it simply: we exist because we exist. There is no "why", but we can explain how it happens. During the mother's pregnancy, something happens and causes hormonal imbalances and tells the brain to become one sex and the body to become the other. Gender Identity: brain's gender (inside). Physical sex: body's gender/sex (outside). When the two do not line up, as a condition of birth, you get a transsexual baby. Transgenderism, on the other hand is caused more by developmental issues, milder predisposing issues than born transsexualism, or personal choice in some cases. The idea that transsexualism refers to post-ops is a hurtful myth. A person is born with transsexualism and eliminates it with surgery. Nobody gets surgery to become a transsexual, but to stop having transsexualism. True-transsexualism has nothing to do with the lifestyle, choice, or third-gender state of transgenderism. People who are born in the wrong body are not the same as people who choose to dress up and live as what they are not.

Why do people keep spreading the hurtful myth that transsexuals are transgender people with surgery when transsexualism is inborn and transgenderism is chosen and surgery cures transsexualism?
Because they do not understand and are not educated. It may be a job of either group to try to educate others. It may take awhile as the media probably is not helping. If people make the mistake often enough without being challenged, it can become the "truth". This happens in other cases as well. For example, trying to explain that viruses are not alive is like trying to explain this to a wall.

What do you mean by transsexual?
A transsexual person is someone who has the identity and nature of someone born with the opposite genitals. As opposed to those who practice recreational transgenderism, an actual transsexual person will likely to go on and get what they consider corrective surgery. The sufferers tend to think of it as a birth condition, and they hate the parts that cause society to rob them of an appropriate life.Do keep in mind that adult publications misuse the term transsexual to refer to a person who keeps, displays, and uses their original genitals while living as the other sex. That is a type of transgenderism and is not transsexualism as defined in early medical literature.
Why are you attracted to transsexuals?
A common reason why some people think they are attracted to transsexual persons is because they don't know what the term means. Transsexualism is when someone hates both the genitals they have and the life associated with them, and feels compelled to live as the other sex and get surgery to remove the unwanted parts and to eliminate their transsexualism. Transsexualism is something to overcome (with hormones and surgery), not something to strive for. The people displayed in pornographic magazines with their original genitals exposed do not have the condition of transsexualism, but are either gay men who choose to crossdress, or they have recreational transgenderism. So some who think they are attracted to transsexual persons are really attracted to those who choose recreational transgender lifestyles. Those attracted to such persons are likely gay or bisexual and in denial.If someone is attracted to actual transsexual persons and are willing to wait until they get their corrective surgery, then there are a few possibilities. They may admire the person's courage and tenacity. Or they ignore the transsexual part altogether and see the actual person; the spirit that resides within.
What are the people called that do surgery?
SRS or Sex-reassignment surgery is performed by specialized surgeons in combination with endocrinologists, psychiatrists, general practitioners, and psychologists. These doctors specialize in reproductive organ surgeries but are not the only ones involved in the process. Remember that only people born with transsexualism should ever get the surgery. Most transgender persons are non-op, while transsexual persons, by definition, obtain genital surgery eventually. After the surgery, they are just women or men and no longer have transsexualism. Despite myths, transsexualism (inborn) and transgenderism (recreation, lifestyle, and political grouping) have different origins. A woman born wrongly with male genitals by no fault of her own is not the same as a man who chooses to fight his masculinity and live as a woman his entire life without ever getting surgery.
How can a transsexual woman get a woman pregnant?
If a transsexual woman was born with a male body and had sexual relations with a female before her sex reassignment surgery (and preferably before hormone usage), then she has the same possibility as anyone else at getting the female pregnant.However, if a transsexual man was born with a female body and had sex reassignment surgery to become physically male, and had sexual relations with a female after the surgery, then no he cannot get a woman pregnant.Usage notes: Transsexuals and transgender are not the same thing. If someone will eventually get surgery, transsexual is the correct term, while if the person will never get surgery, transgender is the correct therm. People are born with transsexualism and get surgery to eliminate it. However, most transgenderism is a choice, and a transgender person doesn't become a transsexual. Transsexual persons get surgery to eliminate their transsexualism, conform, and gain the same rights as those born without it. Also, sex-reassignment is the correct term, since it is the physical sex that is changed, not the gender identity the person was born with. If a person discusses the condition of transsexualism, it is rude and in bad form to change the topic to transgenderism.
