If there was ever a state of confusion traceable to the biological condition, this is it. This is where fact implores of fantasy answers and the truth. I can't imagine the weight of disenfranchisement with humanity at large. In the world of the IS and their ilk, this person would find no safe haven, no happiness whatsoever, and an existence of secrecy and sadness. In other societies and cultures survival is less of a concern but acceptance remains beyond the capacity of the majority to offer.
That isn't the only aspect of such a life. One that embraces the religious side of it attempts to resolve itself as an act of a god and, therefore, makes a claim for legitimacy and equality as one of god's creatures.
But, no such metaphysical reality can be qualified in truth.
Very sad indeed.

The claim that a man can have a female brain is a claim subject to verification.
I know that science has determined that transgender is a real thing. Women produce certain quantities of particular hormones different that men. Transgenders fall somewhere in between. Please read the article that this link takes you to:
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/charlize-veritas/men-vs-women-hormones-a-t...
Hormones are produced in part in the adrenal gland. The levels of testosterone vs. estrogen vary and determine the sex, not just physically but mentally as well.
Transgender are being persecuted in many southern states for something they cannot control. Their individual rights are being denied.
Scientists looking at known male and female brains identify differences. However when shown brain scan images they are unable to identify brains as male or female.

Maybe because they are looking in the wrong location.

Here is an example of you doing what YOU told me that I was doing that was like a 5 year old. Man the hypocrisy.
If I do like what you keep doing, "baseless accusations", I wouldn't use words to indicate my uncertainty and my opinion, like "Maybe" and "I think".
It is an insult to the 5 year old child to even compare them to you. That is why I never compared them to you or vice versa.
I don't do insults, I critique your actions and not you as a person.
Up until now your actions have been childish, never admit fault when you have it, and always accusing without supporting your claims in a mature way.
It is not me claiming that you make childish posts, but you yourself proving it with post just like the one above.

Yea seen it, it be nice to point out that my replies were on topic and it was not me who made unsupported accusations.
I personally ignore his posts when I see them, unless he lies about me.
I defended myself from his accusation.
I just said my piece after he brought back the childish subject with a childish reply by accusing people of being hypocritical just because they contribute to the topic.
Do you think my reply was in anyway a fact? or Hypocritical in any way?
"Maybe because they are looking in the wrong location."
Can a guy contribute a new idea to the topic without people attacking him?
sure anything you say. you obviously can't take criticism. if you think that you don't do insults you are delusional.
Personally , I do not care whether or not there is a fine line dividing the male and female brain. Having gender role categories that do not fit traditional roles enforced by theism is a very healthy trend.
I think you meant UNHEALTHY trend didn't you?
No! I mean the diversity of roles available to men and women , gay , straight , or transgender is a very healthy trend. Women in the military or stay at home dads. Two Spirit people or Cher impersonators. We are on the road leading away from Deuteronomy .
Okay but it seem in your post that you endorsed gender roles defined by theist.
Not at all. I questioned the validity of the claim that a man can have a female brain. I do not believe the line is clearly drawn between the two. I supported that with my post showing the blind study where scientists are unable to ID brain by gender without knowing the gender in advance. I was supporting the idea that many individuals are more unique than male or female.
"I was supporting the idea that many individuals are more unique than male or female."
yea it is time we recognize that male or female is not the only big differences there are.
I view the difference between a psychopath and normal human much more important and worth a deeper study.
Being around psychopaths is certainly more dangerous than being around Cher impersonators.
Here is an example of a woman who may have a brain gender spectrum that might not fit the typical :
