In our current culture/society it's estimated that 1 in 10,000 children have gender identity disorder. That appears to mean 1 in 10,000 boys think they are really girls and 1 in 10,000 girls think they are really boys. Sex change treatment is more common for kids than I thought. Four years old seems a bit young, but then I'm not the kid or one of the parents.
I wonder if we had a bit broader range of acceptable male and female attributes and behaviors, would the surgeries be needed at all? Could we live in a world of with four heterosexual genders: male-males, female-females, male-females, and female males? That might be a more tolerant place or would it? If that's a bit confusing, add in same sex to the mix. Like I said, modest mind warp.
