And there’s no way in hell or on earth that people are obliged to put up with, not speak out against and be happy with others’ bigotry because oh, some confused cis people might not like it and would rather ostrachize them and call them mutants and weirdo’s.

“Individuals are psychosexually biased at birth… From an early age, preschool children distinguish among their peers and, more often than not, will increasingly associate with children of the same ***. This association is not envisioned as any more intentional or purposeful than when kittens and puppies are intermingled and then sort themselves with their own species. Because these behaviours occur so early in life, I see them as inherent so one doesn’t have to think about them.” From Sexual identity and sexual orientation in children with traumatized or ambiguous genitalia.

Our genes, our hormones, and simply the shape of our bodies dictate how we behave. Clearly, the driving force behind *** and gender determination is Nature. Ignorance of reality is no excuse. And if you have no understanding of the difference between *** (male-female) and Gender (masculine-feminine) then you should keep your mouth shut, go back to school, or just grow up.

See “A *** difference in the human brain and its relation to transsexuality”. by Zhou et al Nature (1995) 378:68–70.

Our study is the first to show a female brain structure in genetically male transsexuals and supports the hypothesis that gender identity develops as a result of an interaction between the developing brain and *** hormones

A more useful view is instead of saying “These guys are truly fucked up in the head.” , saying “These gals are truly fucked up in the body”. And get that fixed, so their anatomy is consistent..

Google “RE: SALLY (SPECIAL MEDICAL PROCEDURE) [2010] FamCA 237″ to see such a case – a 14 year old girl, who, without treatment, would naturally masculinise.

As I’ve said, for 59 out of 60 people, it’s simple, uncomplicated, unambiguous. For 1 in 60 though, it’s not, not quite. For 1 in 1000, fraught. For 1 in 10,000…. “complicated” doesn’t even begin to describe it. Sally’s case is about 1 in 300,000. That means 1000 like her in the USA, and perhaps 10,000 to whom the change was welcome, or at least, acceptable. The raw numbers are too small for these estimates to be very accurate though.

They don’t. Not according to
Pfafflin F and Junge A. “S3x Reassignment. Thirty Years of International Follow-Up Studies after S3x Reassignment Surgery: A Comprehensive Review, 1961-1991.”

Later studies showed even higher rates of success. We could reasonably expect 2% of cases to be misdiagnosed, meaning about 40 cases of regret per year in the USA. Actual recorded numbers are far smaller, so either they’re being under-reported, or our estimates of correct diagnosis are too low.

I’d be interested to see which studies Rebecca used to come to her conclusion that “almost half seek to change back”. I’ve seen this figure in one UK report, but it turned out to be an ideological belief, with no evidence to back it up. “We think this has to be so, regardless of the facts that say otherwise”. No numbers, just an “everyone knows” based on religious conviction, and counting everyone who presents with possible gender issues as already diagnosed. In fact, only 1 in 10 proceed to surgery, the rest get weeded out in the diagnostic process. Just as not everyone who presents with a headache has brain cancer.

Have some compassion for her. I hope she gets some professional help for her issues of insecurity, or will come to realise that the only person’s opinion that really matters is hers. Can you look in the mirror and see a decent, kind human being, or someone bitter and twisted? If the latter, no-one can help but you yourself.

You have to believe that you’re no better than others – but no worse either. That you have intrinsic worth that no-one can take away from you, only you can throw that away. Do that – and only the opinions of those you respect really matter. Who cares what ignorant, bigoted and malicious people say?

I’m afraid you’re incorrect. The first proof we had was as far back as 1996, as published in the prestigious science journal, “Nature”. Since then. we’ve been mapping out the extent of the cross-sexed areas. What you’ said is the equivalent of stating that the Earth is flat.

Please have a look at some of the papers I’ve named. They’re all available online.

Here’s a few more:

Male–to–female transsexuals have female neuron numbers in a limbic nucleus. Kruiver et al J Clin Endocrinol Metab (2000) 85:2034–2041

The present findings of somatostatin neuronal *** differences in the BSTc and its *** reversal in the transsexual brain clearly support the paradigm that in transsexuals sexual differentiation of the brain and genitals may go into opposite directions and point to a neurobiological basis of gender identity disorder.

A *** difference in the hypothalamic uncinate nucleus: relationship to gender identity. by Garcia-Falgueras et al Brain. 2008 Dec;131(Pt 12):3132-46.

We propose that the *** reversal of the INAH3 in transsexual people is at least partly a marker of an early atypical sexual differentiation of the brain and that the changes in INAH3 and the BSTc may belong to a complex network that may structurally and functionally be related to gender identity.

White matter microstructure in female to male transsexuals before cross-*** hormonal treatment. A diffusion tensor imaging study. – Rametti et al, J Psychiatr Res. 2010 Jun 8.

CONCLUSIONS: Our results show that the white matter microstructure pattern in untreated FtM transsexuals is closer to the pattern of subjects who share their gender identity (males) than those who share their biological *** (females). Our results provide evidence for an inherent difference in the brain structure of FtM transsexuals.

Those in the Dominican Republic and New Guinea are, to state the obvious, not muslim.

Google “guevedoces urology” to see pictures of what these people’s genitalia looked like. Your description of them is quite wrong. Google “Turning a man” and you’ll see a good article in DISCOVER magazine on the issue.

it’s not “pseudo male hermaphroditism”, it’s “male pseudohermaphroditism” BTW to be technical. But the terminology is poor. It just means someone born looking female who changes to look male later. The correct term is “dichogamous protogynous pseudohermaphroditism”, but “male” is shorter that “dichogamous protogynous”.

I myself am a “dichogamous protandrous pseudohermaphrodite” or “female pseudohermaphrodite”. I looked male at birth, then normalised later. The formal diagnosis is “severe androgenisation of a non-pregnant woman”, though the original diagnosis in 1985 was “undervirilised male syndrome”. They didn’t have access to MRI scans, ultrasounds, and gene tests then.

I used to look male (mostly… to anyone but an endocrinologist or other specialist). I now look female. (mostly.. though this time it would take genetic tests to see that I’m different, an OB/GYN exam couldn’t). I transitioned, just like standard trans women do. My gender identity has always been female, so I was effectively transsexual for most of my life. Female brain, otherwise male body. Mostly, anyway. Enough so that living in a male gender role was the only feasible option.

It was hellish. But in the past now.

I guess you could say that I, and the few like me, are Nature’s experiments. What happens when you take a biological female and make her look like a male – and force her to live as one, at least for a while. We’re psychologically and, when it comes to the brain, *anatomically* indistinguishable from transsexual women. Our existence alone should provide proof that trans women are women, not “mutilated men”.

THIS CONDITION IS CAUSED BY LONG TERM INBREEDING PROBLEMS, and most of the people with the condition in Gaza are related. But muslims just won’t quit breeding with their family members.

Funny to CuntZilla who loves to call people who disagree with her INBRED, when the true inbreds are the ones who would execute all of you for being *** or transgender. THATS MUSLIMS.

god is love.

love is truth

peace and love foreever

it takes so much hard work to see this thru to chnazge and to fight the thing that has been squashing you since puberty, all i can say isn there are so so so so so many epople who are too scared to come out and also far far far more ts/ tg girls in the world that wou’d relaise. i spent my early 20′s getting chased around soetyign silly by drunken and horny men who then decided that it was my fault that they fancied me and threw drinks and spat at me etc etc etc

gender is in your mind and your soul, i dont describe myself as bi. post ofppre op, i’m a fairy, myschevious and flirtatious and caring and soulfull, it’s all about personal;ity. if you go for looks alone you will be very veyr veyr unhappy and destined to neevr find true love.
hugz and morer huggles and huge huge snuggles to all the girls and supporters and liberal minded people out there….

Judging by the quantity of nonsense you have amassed in your post, it’s clear that you need to see a psychologist – urgently.

And you’d also better revise your political assumptions: the Conservatives – Bush in particular – have dragged the world into the worst economical and social crisis since 1929.

If it were for them, blacks would still sit in the back of the bus and women – like YOU – would be still submitted to their fathers/fiancés/husbands. Let alone homosexuals or transgendered or whoever doesn’t fit in their bigotry straitjacket.

World is NOT and has NEVER been black-and-white, as your manichean ideas purport, but is a palette of colours. You have to come to terms with it, like the Conservatards of your bandwagon.

@Penny Sautereau-Fife: So you choose to cover your ears and say “nope, Im right cuz I say so”. It is your self-righteous egotistic logic that makes the hearts of people become zombies to society, your statements are going to offend alot of people by making your self look ignorant, please stop speaking on behalf of all homosexuals in the world.

Stop hiding in your fantasy world, everything that is against your opinion to you its a challenge to your ego, and I guess it would make me a monster if I dont want to teach my children that its natural to put another man’s **** in their mouth just because you want it to be, oh how society has decayed, I remember the day that if a man was *** he would neither deny it nor publish it, very self respecting man right there who I wouldn’t mind sharing a beer with. But today confusion like yours is a plague, quick don’t think, agree with everything they say or you are a bad hurtful person! Isn’t that what the Church is trying to do now days only with Christianity? Everybody wants to be a saint the quickest way possible, which to their logic is the one that you don’t have to think by yourself and for yourself. If only you knew how many *** people are fed up with people with logic as yours.
