The purpose of the study is to investigate dissimilarities between the gender identities of different types of male–tofemale gender dysphorics. Three separate components of gender identity are proposed: personal identity, social identity and sexual identity. Participants selected for the purpose were persons born with physically male appearance, raised as males, but who demonstrated some degree of gender dysphoria. Participants completed an interview-based questionnaire about their beliefs and what contributed to their personal gender identity. Analysis of the data showed that in the sample, the three components of gender identity were not strongly related to each other and were also not strongly related to a person’s sexual orientation. Although people who were identified as transsexual, identified themselves strongly with the sex opposite to that assigned at birth in one or more of the three areas. There was no single set of scores on these three components that was unique to transexulaism
