LOL I fashioned for myself a penis out of my play dough and wore it in my underpants for a while. I wanted to know what it was like to be a boy. And my daughter tried to pee-pee standing up and was dismayed by the mess she made all over herself (and my floor, dammit!!!).
But with those with gender identity issues, they know that they are the "wrong" gender in a way that transcends mere curiosity. They know it as surely as we know instinctively what sex we are. After about an hour, I took the "penis" out of my pants, unimpressed, and continued happily on my way as a tomboyish girl. A person with a gender identity disorder would continue on also, but knowing just as much in their heart what they are "supposed" to be.
