The story of Madison and Will is both fascinating and heartbreaking. It raises so many more questions about AGP for me. It just seems like so much more than a sexual orientation with a "target error" or even most fetishes. It's a complete and extreme change in personality that you don't see with being gay or bisexual. Did the people Madison work with have such pervasive and extreme changes in personality as they explored their fetishes and kinks? The stories from trans widows (and parents of young men with ROGD who may also be AGP) resemble the stories of people who have had frontal lobe injuries after an accident and how their families report sudden changes in their personalities (emotional dysregulation, decreased empathy, impulsivity, promiscuity, short temper, etc).
I’m unclear about the terms “woman” and “female gender role” as used in this sentence: “Ennis thought this was living the life of a woman but then realized that vision edged out so much of the reality of the female gender role.”
