I think that fewer people would feel that they are in the wrong-gendered bodies if socialized gender roles weren't as codified and restricting as they are.
What the conglomerate has done to me for more than 6 years is systematically try to tear down my sense of worth, to attack me sexually, to call me a freak, to ruin my reputation, to subject me to a form of corrective, social sexual assault for not conforming to female stereotypes. However, at no time in my life have I wanted to be male instead of female. I don't confuse my personality and my humanity with my gender, even though this is not the first time in my life that not conforming to female stereotypes has caused me to be viciously targeted.
