animals dont really see gender as much
they mainly just see genitalia
young are raised to see their genitals as deciding factors of life rather than their ‘gender’
it makes everything much more concrete

also many animals have just different components of their bodies depending on sex
like how only female mosquitoes can draw blood

i think if there were a trans animal, they would probably be either exiled (inability to mate) or would die off (cannot provide for themselves)

additionally, humans are much smarter than any other animal, and could possibly be the only ones capable of such philosophy and feelings

I personally believe that only animals with a rather big difference in male and female behavior can have trans thoughts. Dogs for example can be good boys or good girls, but in the end, male and female dogs play the same, run the same, bark the same, and act the same. Humans however built gender stereotypes so convoluted that people may think they’re in the wrong team, unlike animals who don’t consider males and females different teams in the first place.

One species where I imagine that especially the males could have trans thoughts are black widow spiders. This is because the female is way larger than the male, and females tend to eat the males during sexual intercourse. So if I would be a male black widow spider, I would most definitely be trans. Unfortunately, black widow spiders are not able to afford trans surgery in this economy.

Also I am aware that some fish species (such as the clownfish) are able to change their gender. However, that is a biological process, which isn’t what I’m talking about.

Personally? Probably actually…It’ll make sense m, since some females may want to hunt or some males may want to take care of families

It’s in our nature (human nature) to have those thoughts, maybe animals do too

But who says that animals have these patriarchies? In some species, males and females hunt equally, and raise their cubs equally. Lions do, if I’m not wrong.

I didn’t think about that, so let me reword
Other than a handful of species males may hunt more and the females may want to start doing that. Likewise for taking care of family
