A Bárányok hallgatnak c. filmben miért képzelte magát Jame Gumb (Buffalo Bill) transzszexuálisnak?

Nem volt transzgender, de annak hitte magát, mert gyűlölte saját magát.

"Both the novel and film tell of Gumb wanting to become a woman but being too disturbed to qualify for gender reassignment surgery. He kills women so he can skin them and create a "woman suit" for himself. He is described as "not transgender", but merely believing himself to be because he "hates his own identity"."
