Opinions are divided on whether gender dysphoria is inborn or a result of personality development. To the big picture, it is largely irrelevant. It can manifest at different ages, although subconscious manifestations of dysphoria can at times be traced to the time before conscious self-discovery.
 
Consider the typical involuntary [[Gender Bender]] plot (such as in ''[[Ranma ½|[[Ranma ½]]'', or with Roy in ''[[Order of the Stick]]''): the victim often outright hates or is ashamed by their new body, experiencing discomfort with it and seeking ways to remove the "curse". This is how many cisgender people might react, while many transgender people would [[Cursed With Awesome|consider the "curse" a blessing]].

If there was one, transition would largely be limited to social adaptation to the new gender role.
