What's the point of gender reassignment surgery which doesn't change a person's chromosomes?

In other words, these different levels don’t always sync-up. It is possible for your brain, your body, and your genetics to have different biological sexes.

All of these variations have an effect on the person’s neuropsychology and thus their experience of their sex & gender.

Corollary: sex and gender in humans is actually floridly-complex and occasionally very messy.

What are "demonic attacks" and how can one tell when they're happening to them, or someone else? How would one go about dealing with it?

It doesn’t have to change chromosomes, because chromosomes do not determine sex.

So what happens inside “gender-affirming care” depends upon the patient’s lived experience. However, it’s been demonstrated conclusively by a century of psychiatry trying to change transgender patients’ gender identity to match their physical anatomy does not work and in most cases only worsens their mental health, especially in minors.

The single thing that does determine sex is the SRY gene. Its discovery in 1990 changed everything science thought it knew about sex in placental mammals.

New study predicts when the universe will end, scientists claim it is sooner than expected - Earth.com

This can include the SRY gene being defective, being blocked by other mutations, being on the X chromosome instead of the Y, or missing altogether.

It’s usually found at the tip of the Y chromosome (which is why we thought sex was in chromosomes), but there are a number of variations that will change a person’s anatomical sex, neurological sex, chromosomal sex, and genetic sex.
