You obviously don't know science, Short Bus. They didn't set out to answer your questions, they set out to answer their own.You obviously do not get science. The tests did not "reveal" anything if those questions cannot be answered. If those questions can be answered, then at best the tests did not prove the null hypothesis. If you don't know that that means, you are in over your head.
Its funny how you can only speak in generalities and not the parameters and results of these tests and yet still want to try and cosplay as intellectually honest.

Lack of proper grammar according to you. I found nothing off with it and it's you desperate for things to nit pick that appears intellectually weak.Lack of proper grammar indicates an intellectual weakness.
It's a clear personal attack, don't be a bitch about it.Nothing personal, you just choose to take any disagreement as a personal attack, as do most Democrats.

They explain that to you right there in the beginning you illiterate fuckwit.If not a statistical analysis, what kind of analysis did they mean the study to be, if any?

Introduction: Transsexuals harbor the strong feeling of having been born to the wrong sex. There is a continuing controversial discussion of whether or not transsexualism has a biological representation. Differences between males and females in terms of functional imaging during erotic stimuli have been previously described, revealing gender-specific results.
Aim: Therefore, we postulated that male-to-female (MTF) transsexuals may show specific cerebral activation differing from their biological gender.
That would be under results you Dipshit.Where does it say in your link that it was not the same porn? Maybe it does say that, but I did not see it.
Results: Significantly enhanced activation for men compared with women was revealed in brain areas involved in erotic processing, i.e., the thalamus, the amygdala, and the orbitofrontal and insular cortex, whereas no specific activation for women was found. When comparing MTF transsexuals with male volunteers, activation patterns similar to female volunteers being compared with male volunteers were revealed. Sexual arousal was assessed using standard rating scales and did not differ significantly for the three groups.
Small sample size I'll give you but that's not what anecdotal means you moron.The findings were very weak. With such a small sample size, it amounts to an anectdotal story rather than an experimental study.

I don't give a shit what you consider valid or a large enough sample size in your cosplay world. That's a you problem. I'm presenting results of these studies and you can either be man enough to discuss the results of these studies or you can continue to be a bitch about it.I guess you did not read the part where I did talk about what kind of study would be valid for this hypothesis:
I'm not saying that hypothesis about transgenders having different brains could never be tested experimentally. It is ripe for a legitimate study.
If a valid study were done, using larger sample, double blind scoring, and a single isolated variable (which requires randomization), and stastical analysis were performed that showed a significant difference between MTF transgenders and non-trangender male, and that difference is that the tranny brains are actual more like women than men, you got something there.

You seem to be under the impression that these people work to satisfy your goals....Then we'd know it would be malpractice to provide "gender affirming care," on a person whose brain was not fully developed or did not show this difference.

I prefer we use professional sense rather than the sense of commoners like you and I'm guess people with healthcare issues feel the same way because they keep showing up at doctors offices and hospitals and not your front door.Until that science comes in, we must use our common sense to know that cutting up kids is a crime and all perpetrators and conspirators belong behind bars.
Your scoreboard? That means so much to me.I should add that the part about scoring is badly lacking in the study you presented. Another poster mentioned this upthread.

Why do you bigots pretend to care about these people when we can see clearly that you do not? It's one thing to be a hateful assclown, but why be a cowardly hateful assclown? Be proud of that shit, own it. The only reason I can think of why people like you don't is because you know deep down inside you're a deplorable piece of shit so you spend life pretending. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the cosplay, I just think everyone should let their freak flag fly freely.It wouldn't surprise me at all if the brains of people truely suffering from Gender Dysphoria showed similarities to their perceived gender. Obviously, a guy who daydreams about cutting off his own penis is not normal. Many mental disorders have been shown to be caused by physical abnormalities in the brain. Someday GD may also be shown to be the result of brain abnormalities.
Maybe, maybe not. Transgenderism exist on a scale from some choosing to only socially transition to others choosing varying degrees of physically transitioning. It could be that similar to the intersexed (who have disorders of sexual glands due to different hormonal reactions) that different trans degrees or types present in different ways in the brain.When and if that happens, then doctors will know not to do any kind of surgery or medication without verifying that the abnormality is there.
The one time you did you claimed to have not seen the results.Are you sure I didn't discuss the findings of the study? What I just typed seems to be a lot like what what I copied above from my previous post.
My response is that you don't know enough about these studies, their findings, or what doctors treating patients with GD deal with day to day and what they see in their patients as far as response to treatment.It is you who did not discuss the results. What is your counter, if any, to my statement that if gender dysphoria had a physical cause, doctors should hold off on any medical or surgical treatment of gender dysphoria until an MRI of the brain verifies the condition exists?
Because you're the only one taking results from a study and trying to develop treatment plans like you're a medical professional.Yes, I'm a random internet guy. So are you. Not sure why you find that such an important fact.

I posted those studies to discuss the results, not so you could cosplay Doctor.
In the study you chose to discuss it means when shown erotic stimuli mtf participants show brain activity similar to the controls of their chosen gender rather than the one they were assigned at birth. That's it. It doesn't need to be more than that. That in and of itself is pretty damn interesting. At least I think so.OK, maybe I should have asked this before: what do you think this means, since you have not chosen to discuss the findings of the study you posted?
