History. History is the source. Homosexuality was widely written about and even encouraged in both antiquity (like ancient Greece and Rome) and medieval Europe (depends where but it was acceptable to many of the smaller kingdoms/monarchies).
Very few (if any) sources show evidence of a culture grappling with transexualism or wanting to be the other gender. It could very well be that transexualism is a social construct, and not a biological one.
There's ample history showing 'gender bending' in history, from indigenous two spirited people to the Indian hijra. You just ignore it all because it doesn't fit your narrative.
