It's something one is born with for the most part. During puberty some teens can become confused with the changes they go through but typically grow out of the confusion. Transgendered goes much deeper than a boy wanting to wear female clothing because he is more connected to his feminine side or a girl who acts like a tomboy because she falls more to her masculine side. Transgendered people are never comfortable in the body they were born with. Their mind and entire being are only focused on being the sex opposite of what their body is. This goes to their very Soul. They are a Soul who was born into the wrong body. It takes a lot of deep thinking to go through everything required to change ones sex. People do not do it on a whim or go through all the hell just to be different or play a joke. This is real to them. Real enough to go through surgery to have their physical body changed. They are not mental or psychologically sick. They are just as sane as anyone else who is deemed sane. They are just looking to live their life as the sex they are meant to be so they can find happiness in this world too. Support your sister who may one day be your brother. Read up on the subject. See if there's a support group you and your family can join to educate yourselves on what your sister is going through.
