Well dressed man came for feeling of women trapped in man body is suffering from –
First, the core concept here is gender identity disorders. The key term is gender dysphoria, which is defined by the DSM-5 as a marked incongruence between one's experienced/expressed gender and assigned gender. The patient's presentation fits this.
Why is gender dysphoria correct? Because the patient is a man (assigned male) who feels trapped in the wrong body, identifying more as a woman. This is the classic presentation. The DSM-5 criteria include a strong desire to be treated as the other gender, discomfort with one's own sex characteristics, etc.
Now, the incorrect options. If the options included other disorders like transvestic fetishism, which is the desire to wear clothing of the opposite sex for sexual arousal, that's different. Or maybe paraphilias like transvestism, which is different from gender identity. Another possible option could be a personality disorder, but that's not relevant here. Another might be a psychotic disorder, but the patient isn't delusional, just experiencing gender dysphoria.
Clinical pearl: Remember the difference between gender dysphoria and paraphilias. The former is about gender identity, the latter about sexual arousal. Also, the DSM-5 changed from "gender identity disorder" to "gender dysphoria" to reduce stigma.
So the correct answer is gender dysphoria. The options might have been gender dysphoria, transvestic disorder, etc. Need to make sure the explanation covers these points clearly and concisely.
**Core Concept**
This question tests understanding of **gender identity disorders**. The key distinction is between **gender dysphoria** (a persistent incongruence between assigned gender and experienced gender) and other disorders like **transvestic fetishism** (sexual arousal from wearing clothing of the opposite sex) or **paraphilias**.
**Why the Correct Answer is Right**
**Gender dysphoria** is diagnosed when an individual experiences significant distress due to a marked incongruence between their experienced/expressed gender and the sex they were assigned at birth. In this case, the patient (assigned male) identifies as female and feels "trapped" in the wrong body, fulfilling DSM-5 criteria. This differs from paraphilic disorders, which involve sexual gratification rather than gender identity conflict.
**Why Each Wrong Option is Incorrect**
**Option A:** *Transvestic fetishism* involves sexual arousal from wearing clothing of the opposite sex, not gender identity conflict.
**Option B:** *Homosexuality* is unrelated; sexual orientation (attraction to others) differs from gender identity (self-perceived gender).
**Option C:** *Schizophrenia* involves psychotic symptoms like delusions/hallucinations, which are absent here.
**Clinical Pearl / High-Yield Fact**
The DSM-5 renamed "gender identity disorder" to **gender dysphoria** to emphasize the *distress* from gender incongruence rather than stigmatizing the identity itself. Always differentiate this from **paraphilic disorders** (e
