Answer:

b. with a sexual disorder

Step-by-step explanation:

Sexual disorders are usually diagnosed when they are an important part of an individual's changes in sexuality. They can exist for a lifetime, be acquired due to life experiences or clinical and / or psychiatric disorders.

This type of disorder is usually associated with people who do not identify with their gender, ie they are people who although born with a gender (male, female) and have an organized body around that gender, do not identify with it. and feel that it belongs to the other genre. An example of this is Maurice who although born male identifies with things of the female gender.
