[spanky (aka Lola)]

I read this article, and of course this theory is accepted by a great many.  I must admit that it leaves me wondering what, indeed, it means for me if true.  I lived about half a century rarely, very rarely, imagining being anything other than male.  Then my thinking slowly began drifting in another direction.  More than a decade later, I think about it almost all of the time when I am not focused on something else.  I finally started to do something about it, with a certain amount of uncertainty I must admit.  I know I am happiest when taking estradiol, and wish I could snap my fingers and have family, friends, and the world in general accept me as whatever I might become.  

So, if transgendered people are "born that way," what does that mean for me?  I do not know, and would greatly appreciate any insight.
