If this were a "change my view" sub I would give you a delta. Lol. I'm on board.

Aww thanks! I've always been a very logical and research oriented person, which was part of why I peaked because there's no logic to be found in trans world.

studies have shown that the brain differences that do exist (group difference averages, I might add!) are due to homosexuality and not to trans identification. Two, there are not "two different brains" one for each sex, there are just some common sex differences between the brains... and brains don't determine sex, reproductive systems (2 types of gametes) do.

Besides-- how would Kalvin even know what his/her brain is like without getting tested?? You hiding an MRI in that dorm room, dude?

EXACTLY. That's another thing, almost none of them have had a brain scan to prove that claim, yet they'll insist they have an opposite sex brain. Ask them how they know and it's all stereotypes.

I'm glad this was helpful. I didn't necessarily set out to change anyone's mind away from supporting truscums/transmedicalists if that's what they want to do, but I wanted to give my reasons for why I can't support them personally. I don't really care that they aren't 'the TRA who cried phobia'. The beliefs they hold are damaging in a different, more sinister way because they get people on board by seeming logical. Especially if someone wants to support TRAs but trucutes left a bad taste in their mouth.

Of course! And same here :)

Yeah that's just hilarious to me. It seems like such an obviously-ridiculous claim. I'm sure none of these people have actually read the papers on brain differences that they reference so much, because otherwise they would have realized that they are misrepresenting those papers.

Yup, totally agree. I think a lot of well-intentioned people want to believe that there is at least some reason and truth in the "transgender rights" movement. There really is not. The only kernel of truth I've observed there is that they acknowledge the existence of gender dysphoria, which is a problem for some LGB people. It reminds me of the movement about "repressed memories", have you heard/read anything about that? There was another user on here, u/haveanicedaytoo, who seemed to know a lot about it and it had a lot of parallels with the modern "transgender rights" movement.
