There is also no discernible difference in brain scans between different races, such as there is between male and female.
Transsexuals have the same type of brains as the gender that they identify with.
Yes, there are such people, though it is very rare. They are called "otherkin."
Ok, I can see what you're saying about the brain scan and it makes sense, and it does further set them apart from the examples I mentioned above. However, couldn't it still be considered some form of disorder for the brain to be one sex and the rest of the body to be a different sex? Isn't that the crux of the word "disorder," in it's most basic form, that something is not "ordered" properly?
Not in a medical sense.
