Understanding transgenderism.
#61
RE: Understanding transgenderism.
Gender exists as an interaction between mind and body. The interaction between mind and body is ill-defined, so the definition of gender is ill-defined. We might want to suggest as Nudger does that it's all "data" that is acquired independent of the biological facts. But this would be going too far. We know that the brains of people with gender dysphoria differ from those of cis-gendered individuals in ways that strongly suggest a biological basis. And at bottom, the brain is biological, so the distinction itself is a construct. If there weren't biological sexes, there would be no gender. So gender is rooted in biology, even if its expression is moderated by mind and culture.
