During adolescence and even childhood, doubts regarding gender identity may arise. Each person has a different feeling and a way of perceiving themselves. Sometimes it coincides with the way in which a human being is born and in others it does not.
It is true that there are people who have no doubts. Whether they perceive themselves as cisgender – a term used to refer to those who feel as they were born – or as transgender, there are people who are clear about their situation, since they have a correct use of consciousness.

So, over the years, his response was to create an application that helps you find out your gender identity, with the aim of getting more people through this process full of questions.

“Having validation from him that my app was useful is… I mean, there isn’t a better person on the planet to hear that,” the young man said excitedly.
