Science disagrees. I don't presume to know how these people 'feel', but neither do I think they should be stigmatized by the too easily frightened, the insecure and the ignorant who seem to think it's their right to tell other people how they SHOULD feel.
Above your reading comprehension level, but I don't give a shit.

Being transgender has to do with how someone feels about their gender. There are some studies that suggest that some people who are intersex may be more likely to be transgender. This depends a lot on the genetic condition.
About 1 in 200 people identifies as transgender in the United States. That is 1.4 million people just here in America!
Some people who are intersex have treatments because they would like their bodies to look more similar to a typical boy or girl, but some people do not and are happy with the bodies they were born with. That decision is up to them and their families.
Some people who are transgender decide to have treatments to make their bodies look more like the gender they identify, but sometimes they choose not to.
Regardless of what people choose, it is important to respect these people and their decisions, and to use whatever names and pronouns (like he, she, or they) that they prefer.
So yes, there are people who have different sex chromosomes than just XX and XY. There are also people who have smaller genetic changes that make them intersex.
Both the sex chromosome differences and being intersex affects how someone’s body is working physically. However, neither of these things necessarily means these people are transgender, since being transgender has to do with how someone feels about their gender.
