Opinion

... in response to Causes of Gender Dysphoria
  1. Dianne Colbert Dianne Colbert Australia says:

    I have heard of children who have gender dysphoria as a result of parents saying "I wish you were a (opposite sex)."  Things that happen while in the parents womb can impact a child - so if your mum talked to you as a girl etc it is possible that this caused gender dysphoria.
