What's the point of gender reassignment surgery which doesn't change a person's chromosomes?

All of these variations have an effect on the person’s neuropsychology and thus their experience of their sex & gender.

Corollary: sex and gender in humans is actually floridly-complex and occasionally very messy.

This can include the SRY gene being defective, being blocked by other mutations, being on the X chromosome instead of the Y, or missing altogether.

Why am I so wanting to suck a penis?

So what happens inside “gender-affirming care” depends upon the patient’s lived experience. However, it’s been demonstrated conclusively by a century of psychiatry trying to change transgender patients’ gender identity to match their physical anatomy does not work and in most cases only worsens their mental health, especially in minors.

In other words, these different levels don’t always sync-up. It is possible for your brain, your body, and your genetics to have different biological sexes.

It doesn’t have to change chromosomes, because chromosomes do not determine sex.

Why cant I breathe when I sleep on my back, I can breathe if im on my side or stomach but I feel uncomfortable since either my neck is twisted or my back is in pain, im physically healthy and my surroundings are clean so whats the problem?

The single thing that does determine sex is the SRY gene. Its discovery in 1990 changed everything science thought it knew about sex in placental mammals.

It’s usually found at the tip of the Y chromosome (which is why we thought sex was in chromosomes), but there are a number of variations that will change a person’s anatomical sex, neurological sex, chromosomal sex, and genetic sex.
