What I have heard is that due to neuroplasticity you can’t really say there is a definitive ladybrain. Because you can’t separate it from socialization. The difference would have to be shown at the infant level to show sexed brain differences. Plus, what’s the end point on this? Each individual person gets a brain scan at 18 and by that is assigned a gender? What the TIM is arguing is that gender identity is determined by biology which is counter to what the TRAs say anyway.

I’m pretty sure I saw some study that confirmed blanchards typology vía brain scans of homosexual transsexuals vs heterosexual trans.

There are so many studies showing prenatal and infant difference in brain structure by sex I wouldn't even know where to start. Even more that specifically study the effect of prenatal hormones non developing fetal brains.

So you are arguing there is a single male brain and female brain? You think each person should get scanned and assigned... like what’s the end game on this
