Gender identity disorder in girls is reported far less frequently than in boys. The analysis of a six-year-old adopted girl with gender identity disorder is presented to show the importance of the mother-infant relationship and of parental, especially maternal, attitudes toward gender in the normal development of gender identity and gender role definition. This child's unusual history included a late adoption, with clear evidence of separation trauma, and the ongoing influence of maternal infertility. Her symptoms of gender identity disorder appeared before her second birthday and were well established by three years of age. The analysis, from age six to thirteen, achieved a better adaptation to her gender. Her masculine strivings gradually became incorporated into an essentially feminine orientation.
女孩的性别认同障碍报告的频率远低于男孩。本文呈现了对一名患有性别认同障碍的六岁养女的分析，以表明母婴关系以及父母，尤其是母亲，对性别角色的态度在性别认同和性别角色定义的正常发展中的重要性。这个孩子不同寻常的经历包括收养较晚，有明显的分离创伤证据，以及母亲不孕的持续影响。她的性别认同障碍症状在两岁前就出现了，到三岁时已很明显。从六岁到十三岁的分析显示，她对自己的性别有了更好的适应。她的男性化倾向逐渐融入到基本的女性取向中。
