The Brain Sex of transgender women was estimated as 0.75 ± 0.39, thus hovering between cisgender men and cisgender women, albeit closer to cisgender men.
They are trying to talk up the figures.
The group contains homosexuals who will have slightly more female like brains. They don't pull those guys out to see if that has an effect, they mix them in to bring the numbers up.
Thats a much more solid debunking than what he posted
It doesn't. Our brains are as we make them based on what we used the for. The TRA have been bloviating about having FEMALE sexed brains (and spirits) and this says they don't actually.
and this says they don't actually.
Thats not actually what it says. It says their brains are more female than other males, but less female than a real female....solid eveidence their brains are different than other men, and in a way that makes them more like women is NOT helping make your point that they dont have feminized brains, but it has convinced me you have shit for brains
So you're telling me the MtFs have female brains. Got it.
Yes, according to your paper, MtF brains are more like women's brains than 'cisgender' men are, which gives a large amount of credibility to those people saying they feel like their brains are female - they notice they are more like women than other men are so think they must be female, and this seems to have a biological origin as they say
They have exactly female brains with no distinction between MtF and female, got it.

Bro....you didn't read it or are intentionally misrepresenting the findings. I was hoping this was going to be legit, but it reinforces the narrative that the trans brain itself is feminized to some extent
"These findings add support to the notion that the underlying brain anatomy in transgender people is shifted away from their biological sex towards their gender identity."
"The follow-up post hoc tests revealed that transgender women were significantly more female than cisgender men (Cohen’s d = 0.64, t(46) = 2.20, p = 0.016)
"The observed shift away from a male-typical brain anatomy towards a female-typical one in people who identify as transgender women suggests a possible underlying neuroanatomical correlate for a female gender identity"
If this is the best evidence to disprove their narrative, congratulations, you convinced me they are right on this one
