I don't believe you can assess MRI scans. I believe that you absorbed some political activist's misinformation.

Nope. You can see the scans for yourself.

Yes, and I can't assess them either. I get my information about scans from my highschool buddy who is the Chief of Radiology at a prominent hospital in the US. Our level of technology is not such that we can take a scan and know that the person being diagnosed has a brain section for a different gender.

LOL Wolvie you’re so full of shit and probably a hypocrite to boot and probably uneducated in science.

So let me ask you this as someone with a graduate education in biology (Wright State U and Palmer College) and a political moderate.

So as a biologist I will unequivocally state that unless a person has a rare genetic anomaly, such as hermaphroditism or Kleinfelter’s syndrome, they are the biological sex they were born as.

Now if you’re so pro science then you would certainly agree with me that creationism and it’s variant intelligent design creationism have no business being taught in a biology classroom as they simply do not qualify as science.

So are you truly pro science, particularly in biology? Here’s your chance to prove that by simply agreeing with me that Creationism and ID Creationism are not science and that biological evolution is a foundational concept in biology that best provides an explanation, as biologist understand the facts to the best of their knowledge, that models how biological speciation works.

So here’s your opportunity to show me your not full of shit and a hypocrite. Do you agree with me?

What does that mean? Are you saying that those MRI scans are fake?

I am only talking about your interpretation of what you are being shown. You are trusting someone who is giving you misinformation.

I'll tell you what, give me a link to these "scans" and we'll examine who is telling you what.

Because I care about data, I don't consider it to be a mental illness. But I do consider it to be a condition that causes people pain, so I'm glad that doctors have ways to help trans people deal with it safely.



https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/acps.13164

During 2016, when there was an uptick in trans suicides, the scientific community began to stop treating gender dysphoria like a disease. In 2019, the WHO formally removed it from the International Classification of Diseases. As you can see, the number of suicides has been dropping since 2016.
Now that being said, trans people are still much more likely to commit suicide than cis people. However, all the data shows that sex reassignment surgery helps.

Apparently those doctors aren't since the suicide attempt rate is in the 40+% range.

Transgender suicide rates

In another study, University of Pittsburgh researchers analyzed data from an online survey of 2,020 14- to 18-year-olds to explore rates of suicidal ideation and attempts by transgender teens.

They found transgender adolescents (TGAs) had higher rates of suicidal ideation, plans, attempts and attempts requiring medical care compared to cisgender teens. They also had higher rates of non-suicidal self-injury, according to “Suicidality Disparities between Transgender and Cisgender Adolescents,” (Thoma BC, et al. Pediatrics. Oct. 14, 2019, https://doi.org/10.1542/peds.2019-1183).

I said trans people aren't a problem, as in they don't harm society. But I never said gender dysphoria isn't a condition that causes people who have it to suffer. And that's why I support the science that helps people deal with it.
A lot of them do get the help they need, which is sometimes sexual reassignment surgery.

Anyone that is born a male that thinks he's a female is a problem. A bigger problem is you idiots that encourage them when they do so.

That's what being transgender is and anyone that identifies as a sex other than what they were born is in dire need of mental help.

:laugh:

So gender dysphoria is not the belief that you are a different gender. It's a condition that makes people want to be a different gender in such an extreme way that they feel deep emotional pain.
There are some different ideas on whether there are two or four genders, but even people who recognize four genders know that cis men are not the same as trans men. We recognize the biological differences there.
It seems like you're just repeating the talking-points who hear in right-wing media. Try doing some real research.

Ever heard of "peer review"?

Absolutely, and it seems pretty apparent you don't know what that means. Leftists almost universally operate under the bizarre misconception that "peer review" is another word for "science" and they never bother learning what it means.

Please tell me that you are the exception to the rule.


Oh, and where's the link?
