No offense, but do some research next time. It's far more complex than that. And so what if they don't follow stereotypes - look at American culture right now. It's slowly getting so ambiguous, that you cannot really say "oh, that's a male trait" or "oh, that's a female trait."

...that's the point I was trying to make?

If a "male" doesn't have to act "masculine" then why do they need to call themselves "female" to act feminine? A man can play with ponies and bake pie and wear pretty dresses and sparkly earrings all he wants? Why does he need to call himself a woman to do so?

Then it simply comes down to wanting boobies and stuff, and with other people who want different bodies from the ones they're naturally capable of, we go "man that's crazy you should just be happy with your own body"

I would think what needs to change isn't the individual's identification as a male or female, but society's definitions of male and female, which is, by your admission, already so ambiguous that it doesn't even matter? For the average joe, hearing "I'M REALLY A MAN but i like to wear aprons and bake pie tee hee :) also I have a vagina" just sounds. Crazy.
