It will be interesting to see what research tells us in the future. 

The abstract of a 2021 paper in the Journal of Sexual Medicine ends with:

Quote:Although research on the underlying neurobiology of transgender persons has been accumulating over the years, neuroimaging studies in this relatively rare population are often based on very small samples resulting in discrepant findings.

So I don't know what we'll see in the future. It takes time for these things to shake out. Like it or not, scientists are also human beings and their motivations tend to color their findings, especially in the fuzzier issues like psychology.
