The long and short is that I considered the possibility that Mutsuki is simply a girl with some personal hangups or reason for wanting to be a guy.

Mutsuki's statement is what cements it, because it contains two textbook examples of a Transgender identity.

1. Long-term sense of it, from a very young age. Scientists believe we become aware of our gender at about age 3.

2. Inability to pinpoint a logical reason.

If it were an issue with the brother, or with feeling insecure about being a girl....those are logical things Mutsuki could point to. Instead, Mutsuki is unable to make sense of his feelings concerning his birth sex other than feelings of discomfort/disgust/unease. Like I said, it is a textbook example of a Trans person.
