For the record, if you happen to spot a transgender walking around with a battle axe, be very skeptical. When "she" hits you with it, it's going to have the force of a man behind it.
So someone asks for scientific evidence that biological sex is not a simple binary, got those sources, and you decide not to read them or even watch the very simplified video.What work? explain what you posted?
So you read the abstract of the first article then rejected what it says. What a surprise. Especially so since you acknowledge that the paper states explicitly that biological sex is not just sperm vs ova.The 1st study does not do that. Don't dismiss it I read it. It says that men or women is critically poor category that goes way beyond Reproductive. That organs can be considered male or female Add the generic level.
Theoretically not individual by the article Defects In replication Could occur to Mix male and female organs. I suppose you could make this On a percentage scale of 100% male 100% female and Have mixes in the middle. Of course it's medical and I could have easily messed up. Biology is my worst subject After languages.
Thanks for agreeing with what I said in my first post in this thread. Gender and biological sex are different things. Biological sex is easier to study as it is based on genetics and biological structures. Gender is a social science so from a scientific basis, there are a huge number of extraneous variables to come up with easy to prove definitions.Frequently Asked Questions about Transgender People
Transgender people come from every region of the United States and around the world, from every racial and ethnic background, and from every faith community. Transgender people are your classmates, your coworkers, your neighbors, and your friends. With approximately 1.4 million transgender...transequality.org
"A transgender"? Do you mean "a trans PERSON" or do you simply enjoy casting them as things?For the record, if you happen to spot a transgender walking around with a battle axe, be very skeptical. When "she" hits you with it, it's going to have the force of a man behind it.
No, what you're trying to do is confuse the conversation by using intersex to prove transgender.Thanks for agreeing with what I said in my first post in this thread.

The study I posted about brain development in trans people often matching their gender identity does have scientific merit though.
What you are talking about are people born with genetic abnormalities and medical disorders.So someone asks for scientific evidence that biological sex is not a simple binary, got those sources, and you decide not to read them or even watch the very simplified video.
A quick summary. There are many genes that affect primary and secondary sexual characteristics. By your definition they all would have to be 100% male or 100% female. The fact that there are many studies showing otherwise is irrefutable evidence that though in most cases, these genes are aligned, there are enough cases of gene 'misalignment' both from random genetic mutations, fusion of different genes, or environmental factors that turn genes on/off that disprove your claim. And as I said, the obvious examples of hermaphrodites should have ended the conversation about what science says.
And here is what I keep telling you. What happens when someone says they are trans but the brain test says they are not?The study I posted about brain development in trans people often matching their gender identity does have scientific merit though.
What does it matter?And here is what I keep telling you. What happens when someone says they are trans but the brain test says they are not?
It matters because it shows the validity of the test.What does it matter?
And why does it matter that the tests are valid or that they are tested at all?It matters because it shows the validity of the test.
It's a man who thinks he's another gender... how am I to assume he even identifies as a person."A transgender"? Do you mean "a trans PERSON" or do you simply enjoy casting them as things?

Then the Ojibwe speakers have kind of two (animate/inanimate) but it gets more complicated than just that with a kind of hierarchy and then you have the Dyirbal who have 4 (men and animate objects / women, fire, and dangerous things/edible plants / other things)Well, the French have two genders (M/F) for everything (in their words) and the Germans have three genders (M/F/neither). Take your pick...
Those are societal constructs rather than based upon science or medicine.Well, the French have two genders (M/F) for everything (in their words) and the Germans have three genders (M/F/neither). Take your pick...
Don't forget the way the Greek's understood sex, another interesting take that would confuse modern right wingers.Then the Ojibwe speakers have kind of two (animate/inanimate) but it gets more complicated than just that with a kind of hierarchy and then you have the Dyirbal who have 4 (men and animate objects / women, fire, and dangerous things/edible plants / other things)
Why do you assume that all transitions are male to female?For the record, if you happen to spot a transgender walking around with a battle axe, be very skeptical. When "she" hits you with it, it's going to have the force of a man behind it.
I'm answering the original question. he wanted to know the scientific evidence. In case you have troubles reading, perhaps you can go back to my first post in this thread where I clearly differentiated sex vs gender.No, what you're trying to do is confuse the conversation by using intersex to prove transgender.
What I'm proving to you is Intersex and Transgender are 2 separate issues.
I don't do anything because it's not my job to tell people what to feel about themselves.And here is what I keep telling you. What happens when someone says they are trans but the brain test says they are not?
