Understanding transgenderism.

[John 6IX Breezy]

My initial thoughts after reading the link is that many of the sex differences they are probably referring to only exist at the population level and lose their significance at the individual level. They are statistical inferences, and as such, are dealing with patterns of overlapping bell curves that only emerge in aggregate. In other words, I don't think they're finding structures or functions that only a woman's brains can have. There are no "ovaries and testes" of the brain, such that if you have such structures you are by definition a female.

ps. To sort of walk back what I just said. I'm a fan of embodied cognition. The idea that brains don't exist in a vat, and must be understood as situated within a body. Given that such is the case, and that there are maps of the body in the brain, perhaps there are regions of the brain corresponding to innervations of our distinct sex organs. But this idea is undermined in transgenderism. Or perhaps it helps make being transgender an issue of embodiment.

Anyways I'm gonna go read the research cited in that article. I'll get back to you once I'm familiar with it.
