| Im not saying im disagree with you on the topic itself, my comment is just on the semantics... assignement does not stop at birth - it may begin there, but in complex and variable ways - tough to be really exact it often begins in the ultrasoundimages or before when the parents (and others) start to... |

| Let's not mix the basic terms here. Sex is a term defining the chromosomal/hormonal/neurological and so on medical condition. A term for perverts and doctors. Perverts we may all be, but there still is something ridiculous with for example my liking of vaginas, as it is biologicall and anonymous. It... |

| This process of assigning gender is ofcourse not simply binary, but oppositional too, that is sexist in a way that it figures genders as "opposite" and rigid. There is surely some amount of tolerance for transgression becouse being perfectly gendered is not possible. The part that exceeds the tolera... |

| I want it noted that the term "gender assigned at birth" is utterly silly, since we can not be assigned a gender that young in age, we do not have brain sofisticated enough for that kind of code at that age. When we are assigned a gender, it is starting at the play age - when we are told we can't ha... |

| The way I use it, is transgender for the whole thing, from transvestic fetish to full identification. There allways trans is not a good word since it refers to transition. In many cases the sex people are forced in childhood (and later) is indeed internalized to an extent first and then denounced. T... |

| Well, ok, to fit it all in, how (in wich various ways) are these connected? |

| Well, for the reasons stated before, I would be very suprised if there was no connection. Truth however is, I have no data at all on this. I wrote the topic to ask if there is, and allso if people are anonymous enough here to say if they feel a connection in the level of direct experimence, such as ... |

| Indeed, fetish is not allways a thing that is sexual. It is simply being very fond of object in a way that mixes symbolism, pragmatic use and the sensory sensation, in a way that we can come somehow fixated on it. These can come in different combinations, as when pepsi and coke are tasted blind-fold... |

| Surely there may be link between being tormented in a young age for being weird and the kicks of humiliation later, in some kind of perversion - I do not mean this in moralistic sense, perversions are fun for the most part, but pervesion in a way where a even that is bad may create a process in our ... |

| I have been intrested weather there is a connection. I see no reason why autism and powerplay may be linked - I can imagine some points but not fundamental - but there is allso a sensory side to different fetishisms, besides the symbolic - that is, for example shoes in trasvestic fetishism, and cisv... |

| Another way that gender incongruens can come about, is as a form of derealization. Derealization is a psychological term, meaning, that this qualia we feel around us, does not feel really real - as ofcourse litterally it's not, it's interpretation of our brains, it's manufactured imagination and so ... |

| Another question would be, what do you see when you look at yourself in the mirror? Some feel that they dont recognise their image at all... untill in the transition the face will become known. This however is very personal, and not allways the same story. One thing is sure: only way to be more sure... |

| Very possibly so. Some comments on "others" and jobs too. 1. Ofcourse, it would be elitist to think that everyone can hava an highly paid academic or it-related job, not becouse people are not intelligent enough, but becouse it may not fit their profile. On this theme of becoming yourself, it become... |

| Have to point out that in my case dissonance could just be called pleasant resonance of my body and the ghost, what for many is dysforia, is to me rather autogynefilic, narsistic euforia. But not to let us get by too easily, there are other points: what may seem gender expression, may not even be re... |

| 1. I should have not said untrue, apparently it is true, and an important fenomena. I should have said it is not that simple. Ofcourse the idea that karyotype is sex is plain wrong, I know there is proof of what you are saying: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causes_of_transsexualism Genetics The andro... |
