Then explain how Bruce Jenner becoming a woman but still being attracted to women works?
You can detect differences in the brains of people with Schizophrenia also, but we don't accept their behavior as normal.
So what about people that identify as christian, is it bigotry not to accept their claims?
*sigh* You insist on (deliberately?) failing to grasp every single element of what being a trans person means.
It is unrelated to their sexuality, or sexual attractions.
And your "schizophrenia" comment is WAY, WAY off the mark. When we say "detect differences", I refer to the fact that the ones claiming to identify as women show brain-characteristics indicative of a female brain-activity (on the aforementioned fMRI scans), rather than the male type. For your analogy to work, it would mean that schizophrenics were claiming to see things, we tell them they're not really, and then the fMRI scans show that their brains really are doing what they claim they're doing... but you tell them they're still full of shit.
Yes, it would be bigotry if you told me you were a Christian and I told you that you really weren't because reasons.
You failed to elaborate on Bruce Jenner.
