It says for instance that the white matter in some parts of the transgender brain resemble that of the opposite sex

Sauce?

look up ur mum on google m8

>new scientist
>unironically citing a non peer reviewed publisher ran by two gay men

Yeah no agenda there

SAGE

I included the sauce mate

Enjoy your ban

>men and women are exactly the same!
>men and women are vastly different!

He included sources, you probably didn't check them

>It says for instance that the white matter in some parts of the transgender brain resemble that of the opposite sex

It's fucking nothing. Hormones affect brain structure, so if you take female hormones, your brain is going to start resemble that of a female.

The studies explicitly mentioned that the brain scans were done before hormonal treatment

enough with teh fucking transgender, ALRIGHT.

they didnt' exist 50 years ago. And the only reason they exist now, is because there are fucking retards like you, who actually listen to these fuckwits
You are NOT transgender. You are either a man or woman, gay or straight

it's that fucking simple.

transfuckinggender. What a bunch of made up bullshit, and anyone that even utters that word, is a fucking god damn retarded sheeple.

How does it feel to be low IQ?

they did exist 50 years ago though

...

I think you're the one with a low IQ. I present an article backed by studies you can check out for yourself and you only come back by saying horseshit. Transgenders did exist more than 50 years ago, you didn't hear much of them because back then it wasn't accepted

It doesn't say if those differences are statistically significant.

I can't find a PET brain scan of a trans person on google. I wanted to compare it against one with depression.

>not knowing that taking female hormones while reducing and blocking naturally made testosterone makes the brain smaller and the same as a womans

come on Sup Forums this is like shit researches have proven since 1990

I love how so many people are trying to justify "anomalies" in an attempt to make it acceptable for people to be treated through years of invasive surgeries and a lifetime of chemical and physical therapy. Shouldn't these "anomalies" be regarded as the true disorder?

you are the one with teh LOW IQ

fucking transgender. Listen to yourself, you fucking moron!

check these

>backed by studies
just a random dude here...did you read the studies cited in the article? Just wondering. I've found that most people can't interpret results to save their lives. I've also found that authors come to conclusions (which they include in their abstracts...which is all most reporters ever read) which are not necessarily shown in the evidence. What I'm saying is that in order to really know what came of any given study, you should read the DATA presented in the study and draw your own conclusions.

But what do I know

1. Neuroscientists still have no idea what exactly causes what. They found patterns in brain activation across people: that's it. They cannot tell why they're there or why a different kind of activation implies you're thinking something different or acting in a different way.
2. There can be simultaneity bias in these results. That is, the fact a person acts differently, regardless of the reason, will obviously imply the brain is activating in a different way. Now you can't tell if the activations are what's actualizing the different preferences and behaviors or if it's the other way around. It's plausible that something from the environment made the person behave differently and that in turn is what's making the brain show up different patterns: it could even be that due to plasticity the brain that there is a lasting change in the brain after said environmental factor kicks in.

tl;dr study is bullshit because it has no proper account of causal mechanisms

Also, even if it was genetic, it would not make it okay. Or now appeal to nature is okay? If so, you're giving fuel for conservatives to take away gay rights.

Are you the Dutch faggot? Delete this nasty faggot porn now homos like you need the noose!

Transsexuals existed 50 years ago. They existed hundreds of years ago, but without the ability to supplement any females hormones and as eunuchs without the ability to make any male hormones. Transgender was supposed to be the same thing but it's been fucking warped to the point that actual transsexuals distance themselves from the word.

The problem is that society has repeatedly pushed "transgender" and it's tabooness in media and movies to the point that it's "regular"and "normal" to be it, and all these "transgendered" hons come out of the woodwork thinking their life will be better as a girl and ruining their lives and their families lives, taking the word of simply transitioning gender and making it a gender itself, and even trying to split it into 50 fucking genders because they realize they aren't female but still want to be a faggot snowflake. Real transsexuals want to be women and want to blend in as women, not stand out as some bright haired snowflake multi-gender fuck. It pisses me off when women I know say they're trans and dress exactly the same and ask to be called by their "preferred pronouns." They don't know what it's like to actually be it, they're just jumping on the bandwagon like everyone else because it brings attention and gives a sense of self-importance where they felt they couldn't make it.

>There are no genders or races. You can be whatever you want just by your mind
>Here is a scientific study showing how the brain of a male that transitioned look like female brains.

Doublethink must be one hell of a ride.

>In conclusion, during testosterone treatment FtMs showed
increases of FA values in brain bundles that were already
masculinized or defeminized before androgen treatment.
Thus, testosterone acts on the white matter microstructure
ordering its coherence and axonal organization. Moreover,
the size of this effect depends on the bio-availability of
testosterone before beginning the hormone treatment.

It happens in development by a hormonal or other disturbance during certain growth stages.

Why does this matter at all?
You know the brain scans of depressed, bipolar, schizophrenic, avoidant, anti-social, borderline, and OCD people are all different from normal too right?

All this proves is it's a mental illness, just like we thought.

So y'all posting traps in here or nah

That's possible, I'm convinced these things can be fixed using therapy and drugs. People who undergo treatment mutilate their body permanently. Some people who changed their sex have reported regretting that decision. Not strange because this white matter develops untill your 30s

toothpaste won't reply to this.

Statement 1 is false, we do know more than that (though we have a long way to go)
Statement 2 is in coherence with the study

>In conclusion, during testosterone treatment FtMs showed...

Like I said up here,
>I've also found that authors come to conclusions (which they include in their abstracts...which is all most reporters ever read) which are not necessarily shown in the evidence. What I'm saying is that in order to really know what came of any given study, you should read the DATA presented in the study and draw your own conclusions.

So, did your analysis of the data come to the same conclusion as the authors? I'm asking a personal question, not whether or not you know how to find a conclusions section and regurgitate. Again, if you did come to this conclusion given the data at hand, great. If you just trust that their interpretation of it is accurate, well, you're just believing someone in a position of authority because they have authority.

I could care less either way. This is an issue which (obviously) matters to you. All I'm saying is that it would do you well (now and in the future) to be led by the data when it comes to scientific research, don't just trust the "experts" and their conclusions.

Peace, bro.

If transgenderism, like other degenerate compulsions like homosexuality and bestiality, are not mental illnesses, then there is no such thing as mental illness.

Period.

I'm a male, I act like a female all the time. I relate more to females. I wear women's clothes. And I hate transgenderism. I just hate it. It's a bastardization of what it use to mean to be gay. Men have been dressing in women's clothes and basically being women for centuries, that's why being gay is. We don't need a new God damn word for it. I hate that so many guys fall for this incredibly obvious lie that taking hormones will ever get rid of their man hands, man shoulders and general man stuff. It's marketed like its the XChange pill. And it makes people fucking retarded, too. Just be gay. Gay is fabulous.

people write articles all the time

I can bring up articles about the fucking lockness monster

Gonna tell me he's real too?

So give your fucking head a shake you low IQ moron.

BULLSHIT

made up hog wash

it's people like you, who vote for hillary clinton

Yeah, people who take estrogen become similar to females in physiology, holy shit stop the presses!

White matter is very plastic, OP.

It's not an unchangeable inborn quantity.

Trannies are mentally ill and they need treatment, not surgery.

We don't put stomach bands on anorexic people for fucks sake.

awesome. So pedophilia or however you spell it. Is normal too

Awesome.

*shakes head slowly

That is what these transgender assholes would like you to think. They are normal, homo's are normal, fucking pedo's are normal.
I got one word DE GEN ERATE

I need sauce. She's got a beautiful feminine penis.

I'm referring to the juicy tranny dick.

and that's called being GAY, son.

i have no problem with fags. Means more women for me.

have at all that gay guy ass you like. I wish all guys were gay except me. i would be swimmin in pussy

Ah fabuleux un nouveau trap thread sur Sup Forums...

>Feminine penis

...

you just wanted an excuse to post tranny porn on Sup Forums, didn't you, dutchroach?

C'est parfait Nigel...

Is there anyone on this thread who literally wouldn't suck a feminine penis?

It's not gay if it's a really feminine one.

...

Female - Of or denoting the sex that produces ova or bears young.

Male - Of, relating to, or designating the sex that has organs to produce spermatozoa for fertilizing ova.

No chromosomes meme necessary.

Does having two dishwashers, one for meat and one for dairy qualify you as being mentally ill? Why or Why not? Why are grown men who grow Jewlocks and wear penguin outfits any wierder than the dudes who dress up as girls in NYC? Would the latter still be considered mentally ill if they said G-d told them to do it? Or would they be considered more mentally ill?

Food for thought.

...

Why do people say this? Isn't Sup Forums a pink board that it's ok to post porn to as long as it's not a porn dumping thread?

Why are trannies so fun to fuck?

>It says for instance that the white matter in some parts of the transgender brain resemble that of the opposite sex
But my feminist theory class told me that men and women don't have different brains so this study is clearly patriarchal and invalid

Because you can suck eachother's dicks before fucking her in the ass.

>Transgenderism is a mental illness
Thanks, doc

...

Because they're degenerate whores who have all taken far more than enough dick to know how to please a man?

It literally is though
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender_dysphoria

The bible forbids mixing dairy with meat
Nobody owns a dishwasher though
The sink is a dishwasher

Not sure about the Docs performing these procedures.

Yeah, that's what I was getting at bruv, trannies are just a bunch of fruitcakes.

It wouldn't make it "okay", but it would make it legitimate.

...

Im not reading that. But I can say that if you enjoy traps, you are a homosexual. It's factual.

...

>But I can say that if you enjoy traps, you are a homosexual.

Tu es certain, Bubba?

both should be purged

I would savagely tongue her asshole, and dump loads into her ass while playing with her oversized clit.

>(((science)))

Nice try shlomo.

Branca Bacci Brunelli, Bubba...

Whatever happened to the MODS MODS

Feeling like you are the other gender is very real unfortunately. It is merely palatable for me because I haven't transitioned, but no amount of machismo and raising my masculinity can make it go away. Death is the cure, perhaps.

...

But what if she is cute and has a feminine pens?

Tous les negres dans ce thread hitterait ca...

Tranny dick

On my Sup Forums?

You are mentally ill.

Arrête d'être une pute frustrée Jeanne....

...

Do you have more videos?

I'm pretty sure I read through this study at some point and it was all post hormone patients which means all it indicates is that hormones fuck with your brain.

Brah...
