>Brain activity and structure in transgender adolescents more closely resembles the typical activation patterns of their desired gender, according to new research. The findings suggest that differences in brain function may occur early in development and that brain imaging may be a useful tool for earlier identification of transgenderism in young people.
This shows that gender is in the brain. Having a penis or XY chromosomes does not prove you're a man. A transwoman is a real woman and a transman is a real man.
>This shows that gender is in the brain. May I remind you that correlation doesn't necessarily suggest causation. If you're going to use science to back up and argument (which is counterproductive - you're suppose to use scientific evidence as the basis for theories), please use it correctly.
That is all.

Stop trying to validate your fetish.

Human rights extend to being provided an education, clean drinking water, enough food to not starve, and to not be tortured.
Me validating your identity is not a human right. If you look like a man wearing a wig, I don't give a shit about your hormones or your brain activity.
Sebastian Edwards
>This shows that gender is in the brain So it's like a mental illness
Load of shit. For one, that map idea of the brain as a uniform template is just wrong. Those maps are just an average of 100+ brains with all completely different activation patterns.
Ie occipital lobe activation during speech formation
Trans are just mentally diseased. Their rights do NOT supercede healthy people's rights.

You’re a fucking retard and so is whoever did this study.
All this shows is what we’ve known for 100 years. Neuroplasticity exists. If you think like a girl and do girly shit, your brain will resemble one who also thinks like a girl and does girly shit.
This does not change gender
Kill yourself

being trans means there is something wrong with your brain chemistry and should be treated as the mental illness it is.
Daniel White
continually dividing people based on anything gives us less rights. congratulations you degenerates.
Brayden Rivera
We're not dividing you were trying to fix you. It's quite honestly disgusting when a man is out acting like a woman and vice versa and we just want the best for everyone
Ayden Gonzalez
Man this is just shit. Think about the trans bullies who take part in opposite sex sports and win because of fucking inequality
Either that or gender is much less carved in stone than most men are raised to believe. I know from experience most women don't give a flying fuck about gender identity and sexuality, and just do whatever feels right with whoever they like.
Brayden Lee
Most women I have talked sex with have had sex with other women at least once just to try it and they have no problem saying they are heterosexual or bi-curious. Imagine if all these pretend Yea Forums manly men had the same level of courage to own their sexuality.

dubs confirms
yeah i was gonna say this. basically if you think you're a lemon long enough your brain will look like a lemons brain.
that's literally retarded the body is a complex soup of chemicals and genetics that can be modified *to a certain extent* the reason trans people exist is because sexes are actually not that different, and differentiation only requires some mix of hormones or the other pretty late during development
So is it a game changer if said trans doesn't identify as human? What then, animal rights?
Brandon Walker
This guy can read the writing on the wall Good for you user.
Isaiah Price
what makes someone trans is not that much what they identify with, but 1) how they present, think and act, 2) gender dysphoria
i know a FTM trans person who hasn't taken hormones and "she" IS already a man and has always been. a girl i know had sex with him and she later told me he behaved in bed like any other guy, except he had no dick so he used a strapon.
> Having a penis or XY chromosomes does not >prove you're a man. A transwoman is a real >woman and a transman is a real man.
yes it does hon, cock mean man. for gender identity see personality association and fuck off misunderstanding semantics
Luis Gutierrez
first of all, you are neither trans nor a researcher
second, why do you even care? assuming you were right, what difference does it make to you, trans people or anyone else?
Dylan Hill
trans rights are the end of civilization.
Justin Baker
i care cause its on my board and thats what i do and your right but i can spot a fallacy when i see them stay away from the sci and just accept that this is in your head and because of that its a good enough reason to do as u please just dont presume others will play along if you make a mistake
Charles Foster
Lemon man begs to differ.
Joseph King
Transgenderism is mental illness, plain and simple.
Caleb Howard
Did you just assume xers gender?
Evan Perry
What even is confirmation bias? I'm going to sell t-shirts that say "feelings are not facts"

its when u look to prove yourself right instead of trying to prove yourself wrong

So the DSM5 classified gender dysphoria as a symptom of seeing "female" brain patterns in male brains and vice versa. The hilarious part of this is it proves that "yes" there are legitimate transgender people who are mentally ill BUT ALSO that gender is both biological (because there would be no difference in the brains if it's "just a social construct) and a binary (because there are OBVIOUS differences in male and female brains).
Ayden Hernandez
well said we can all agree that brain wave patterns are a product of environmental causes.
Brayden Adams
i'm actually not trans, but i've met a number of trans people in the past, plus one of my favorite youtubers came out as trans last year and has discussed some of her issues in detail, which has been quite eye-opening.
