The transgender – what it means?
Disputes on a possibility of change of gender accessory of the person are enough, but, to be fair, it is worth noticing that such people existed at all times, but the attitude towards them was various. In myths and legends of ancient civilizations it is possible to find a large number of confirmations of "transformation" of the man into the woman or – on the contrary, and about it wrote, how about quite everyday occurrence. In later times the people tried to understand: who is such, trasgender. Interested not less the answer to this question and "responsible" who since the childhood felt psychological discomfort from such uncertainty. As a rule, laws of society did not welcome appearance of similar "unlike" people, and they carefully hid the sufferings and reflections about the one who are they actually and that with it to do.
How does "it" occur?
Quite often uncertainty in sex determination of such people generates a question why become transgender people, and it demands explanations as not so much become transgender people how many are born. And if become, then not for the sake of an entertainment at all.
Today it is no secret, that the lack of feeling of satisfaction in connection with belonging to any given floor, at many arises in children's or youthful years. A striking example to that is "cavalryman maiden" Nadezhda Durova, become a prototype of the main character of the movie "Hussar Ballad". She wrote in the memoirs that she had disgust for the floor, and in usual life constantly walked in a men's dress and demanded that she was named not Nadezhda, but Alexander. That is everything that happens to such people, occurs more likely at the level of subconsciousness. It is not cheerful disguise and tomfooleries. Sex change – the serious decision which, most often, is dictated by "will of flesh", but not desire "to be advertized" and to surprise someone.

History of the dear eight-year-old daughter of "star" parents Shaylo Jolie-Pitt who already, in fact, is a transgender is widely known. She feels like more comfortably the boy and wants her to be named John.
Not less effectively as the woman also the African American Laverne Cox who was, at the time, the boy Roderick looks.
