Human brains do not reproduce, human people do. Brain studies are pointless in dealing with sex. Its like classifying baseball players according to what they do when they play soccer, or classifying Rugby players by what they do when they play quidditch for those in the British Isles. Gender is bullshit, if we accept this bullshit then we would have an additional way to classify some people, but sex would remain immutable. I don't need to dig through the studies to draw these obvious conclusions.

Believe me, i totally get it and what you said is true that trying to diversify brains in this way is a fools quest because no brain is one and the same and many other factors can affect the brain's development. But I feel like tackling these things can be beneficial because it's the one prominent thing being used to indoctrinate people into the belief as the average person may not understand this stuff.

I think the best thing to do for someone who is lost in their own delusions is to tell them they are lost in their own delusions. If the store you want to go to is just down the street from where you live, but you drive the other way, get on a hiway, pay a few tolls and over-complicate the simple, then the best thing we can do is not suggest "EZ Pass" for the tolls but say "you are over-complicating this."

You see this in the arts, and you see it all sorts of other areas. You can get so enamored with details and complications, crazy techniques or obscure patterns, that the simple truth of things is forgotten. This is why I take zero steps away from Men and Women as defined by the reproductive function of the genitals.

To the question of DSDs I ask those posing the question to answer it and point out it has nothing to do with gender. To the notion that someone feels like a man or woman or they always "knew" they were not what their sex is" I say none of us do and none of us are. We are fully human with all the same feelings and insecurities and the same sense of lacking.

The one thing I realized most recently, and am perhaps more insistent on than the trans idea, is that there is really no such thing as "cis", that is pure projection, if not envy or groundless disdain. At best there are those who are blissfully unaware of all this bs, but they might be dudes who write poems or like figure skating, or cooking, or any presumably girly things, or women who like rugby or football, or carpentry, or The Three Stooges, or what ever else guys are supposed to like.
