・・・・・・ In general, if he was raised as a male
and experienced enough discomfort to want to
change his gender, then, the man-norm must have
been felt to be far more "
relevant" to him than
the woman-norm. Moreover, he is more likely to
have become a trance precisely because he felt the
man-norm was
relevant, stronger than cis men
generally felt, so he could even be said to be
"more man than average." In any case, according to
the participatory model, his gender identity must
have been nothing but man. Nevertheless, in order
for him to be able to claim that the woman-norm
is somehow more "
relevant" to him, he would have
to appeal to his personal circumstances, such as
his personality's "more feminine" than "masculine"
nature. This situation can be said to have
collapsed into a dispositional model.
