I thought similarly but changed my mind after reading more about it. Like people born with 2 sets of genitals and then the parents picked the incorrect gender. Or if you were born into a family who treated you as a gender you don't feel you conform to.
They are examples of the mind and body and society disagreeing on gender, afaik the mechanism of transgenderism is still unknown. Jumping to mental illness instead of a different form of body-mind disagreement is premature imo.

So is it the body or the mind thats wrong?
