Abstract

Transseksuelen zijn mensen die zich sterk en persistent met het andere geslacht identificeren en een permanente onvrede hebben met hun anatomisch geslacht of zich zeer onbehaaglijk voelen in de genderrol behorend bij hun eigen biologisch geslacht (Cohen-Kettenis, 2000). In de dsm-iv wordt voor deze problematiek de term ‘genderidentiteitsstoornis’ gehanteerd.
