Here's the article where TRAs themselves rejected the idea of trans brains because it's gate-keeping.

lol. Whenever the brain scan argument was brought up, I'd say would you agree to use it to screen out false gender ID claims? Then crickets.

The same arguments already came and went for using scientific tests to prove homosexuality.

Like if it actually worked you'd have a much easier time diagnosing? Just pop them in the MRI machine and you'd only have people that are actually trans, not people that think they are.

I also think most people would be fairly chill with it because if we know what causes it we get closer to being able to fix it. Preferably without mutilating people. Like imagine you find out a brain zap in the right place cures it and all they need is that? Considering people with depression have said it works for them as a reset it's possible it works for other things.
