   Of course it is. But you have to consider that many people are   
   culturally committed to the idea that sex determines gender when   
   it seems that gender may well determine social-sexual roles.   
   The unremitting belief by some that they were meant to be of   
   the opposite sex from the one they were born to leads to the   
   idea that perhaps there is something to the idea of a soul.   
      
   	"Transgender" is just a descriptive term invented by a   
   psychiatrist/endocrinologist for understanding the phenomenon of   
   reported behaviors and emotions by the patients who sought hormonal   
   treatment for relief of undesired sexual feelings.   
   That doctor was Harry Benjamin in his book "the Transsexual Phenomenon".   
   Magnus Hirschfeld in the 1920s and 1930s called the same folks   
   "intermediates."
