Culture is the third factor in transgender causation. In earlier podcasts I described how genetic gender predisposition was formed based on two factors: genetics and epigenetics.

When genetic gender predisposition and culture collide, the result is transgender people.

Transgender people cannot change their genetic gender predisposition but they can change Western culture to be more accomodating to diversity.
