Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Gender dysphoria involves a conflict between a person's physical or assigned gender and the gender with which they identify. This can cause significant distress, which is a key component of the diagnosis. Therefore, someone diagnosed with gender dysphoria, like Isaac, can be described as transgender and distressed, but the diagnosis itself does not specify the individual's identified gender beyond it being different from their assigned gender at birth.
