I'm not sure how you know.
Personally, there was never a glowing revelation from the gender fairy that I was male. I never woke up and was like, "I AM SUCH A MALE NOT A FEMALE NOPE TOTALLY A MALE.".
It's more, "Oh look. I have a penis. That's cool.".
I think you know you're another gender if it's more like, "I have a penis, it should not be there, I should be a female, I hate this body, I am stuck in it, this is a problem, and I'm going to fix it.".
Transgender individuals often describe the feeling of 'being trapped in another person's body". I suspect that this strong reaction is how you would know.
