COVxy posted... darkjedilink posted... Then present some. It wouldn't take you much to google if you'd actually want to educate yourself, there are may articles regarding sexual dimorphism and the brain meant for laymen. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/his-brain-her-brain-2012-10-23/ https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/is-there-something-unique-about-the-transgender-brain/ http://www.brainfacts.org/Brain-Basics/Neuroanatomy/Articles/2014/His-and-Hers-Sex-Differences-in-the-Brain (I imagine you might find yourself stuck on the wording about uniqueness of the transgender brain, but it's kind of a red herring. The evidence suggests something has gone wrong during the traditional development of sexually dimorphic characteristics, and this is likely related to the pervasive claim of perceived identity) Scientific American is a pretty good source for these things, science being presented in an accurate but digestible form. (Edit, added another link to brainfacts.org, mainly because when closing my google search tabs I noticed the link, and wanted to point that website out to you. It's run by SfN, and also provides some very accurate and digestible information) I've read them all a few times, and have yet to come away with this idea that they contradict the OP. I take from them the idea that there is a brain chemistry issue to be studied with the idea of finding a treatment or cure for the underlying chemical imbalance - not that we, as a society, need to feed delusions caused by such. Same stuff was said for homosexuality. The obvious answer is that who a person is is their brain, not their body. --- </topic> <cite>GiftedACIII posted [p:886064934] in transgende...
