Transexuals

[Excited Penguin]

I have a very simple question, has it been proven beyond doubt that transexuals identifying as the opposite sex than the one they were at birth actually have the brains of the opposite sex?

If that is the case, scientifically, then I would have to accept that it's normal, and not simply a delusion, for some individuals to identify as the opposite sex. But I would have to know first that a man actually has a similar brain to a woman, if said man chooses to identify as a woman, for example.

Yes. However, there is no such thing as "the brain of a woman". There are only wiring patterns that tend to develop because of hormone levels during fetal development and early childhood development, in which you can see different activities/connections in the brains of women on scans, versus those of men. Like all things in biology, it is not a binary solution-set, but a range of variants.

It has been shown in initial testing that people claiming transgender "feelings" tend to have the wiring-pattern described, above.

I will link you to one example; my Google search turned up several. Do your own homework next time.

But more importantly, why does it matter whether it's hard-wired for us to accept them as they are? Even if it was socially-acquired, or some other sort of issue... WHAT DOES IT MATTER? It's clear from the existence of Gender Dysphoria that it's traumatizing to them to be treated as society has taught us to treat them, based on birth sex, and they deserve not to be traumatized.

Fuck off with the attitude, I never asked you to help me, you did so of your own will. I asked a question, I didn't ask for your shitty attitude.

It does matter if it's something they were born with or not and if it can be remedied, not for the rest of us, but for them, I would think. I couldn't give two fucks if a man thinks he's a woman or viceversa, it doesn't affect me in the least.
