For one, I still do not believe that parents nor society have an influence on the gender identity of any individual, as it is apparent that gender identity is a personal concept. It is literally the way an individual identifies with their assigned and biological sex. It is solely up to that individual and whether or not they are able to identify with their sex. Hence, regardless of what their parents say or what society expects of them, that individual will ultimately follow their heart just as Bree did. It was apparent that Bree’s mother did not approve of her gender identity and her decision to have sex reassignment surgery. In spite of this, Bree still sought approval but was unbending in terms of her decision to be who and what she wanted to
