The fetal brain develops during the intrauterine period in the male direction through a direct action of testosterone on the developing nerve cells, or in the female direction through the absence of this hormone surge. In this way, our gender identity (the conviction of belonging to the male or female gender) and sexual orientation are programmed or organized into our brain structures when we are still in the womb.
However, since sexual differentiation of the genitals takes place in the first two months of pregnancy and sexual differentiation of the brain starts in the second half of pregnancy, these two processes can be influenced independently, which may result in extreme cases in trans-sexuality. This also means that in the event of ambiguous sex at birth, the degree of masculinization of the genitals may not reflect the degree of masculinization of the brain.
There is no indication that social environment after birth has an effect on gender identity or sexual orientation.
Before I even read that, please tell me what this has to do with anything previously said because if it is just fluff then I don't want to waste my time. If you are going to answer a question of mine or explain something to me, then fine. Reading the bold part doesn't give me any hope that this will be any kind of answer to anything I've said. Sorry. Maybe you can explain to me what you are saying with that quote.
The only part of your statement that is factual is the part bolded in red.
I stick to what I say. I might not like kids, but I don't think children should be raised in same-sex (particularly lesbian) households because they will grow up confused and may have a sex-identity crisis.

And that's the point. How can anyone argue that this is NOT a possibility? If it is a possibility then why is the situation in the article allowed to happen?

I know, right? A lot of proponents of homosexuality get offended by others' statements and demand sources. Like, haven't they read the article? They know something's wrong about a young male wanting a sex change, yet they demand sources.

No need for a source. Approximately 95% of children raised in same-sex households will have an gender-identity crisis or may grow up to dislike the opposite gender or their own.
Approximately 100% of your post is false.
