ORIGINAL: Greta75 Can you define precisely what is a "Female Brain"? And what is not a "Male Brain"? Personally, I can't define this because I don't know enough about the brain and it's functions. The brain not matching the body, however, I find to be a term that is the simplest explanation to help people attempt to understand gender dysphoria because we tend to make the connection that our gender identifications in our earliest memories aren't necessarily connected to our physical self. quote:
In life, alot of people do DO alot of drastic painful expensive body altering things, beyond sex change, there are plenty of women who go through multiple plastic surgery to achieve a certain perfection of Female Looks. If they desire of certain "Physical Appearance". I don't think this is a comparable argument. Unless we start talking about actual birth defects, most plastic surgeries just aren't of the same depth or repeated necessary procedures. quote:
Not comparable. He is no longer a Crippled because he is no longer Crippled. The better comparison would be, if he had no legs, then he was given prosthetic legs, is he still a crippled? Yes he is still a Crippled. Prosthetic legs are still something that a person takes on and off, so I don't think that's a good comparison, either. I'm not trying to minimize here but wouldn't a better comparison would be if a person was bald and got hair plugs, would they still be bald? (I'm sure other people will come up with a better example. quote:
But a man who change his physical appearance into a woman is still not physically internally a woman. No womb. No Period. For example. No Menopause. He is simply a man chose to look like a woman. Given a plastic surgical Vagina. Like prosthetic legs. Same with a woman changing into a man. She can STILL give birth, after being a He! You're making a mistake here, too. There aren't "plastic" parts involved in SRS. The tissue from the former gender is used to construct the genitalia of the gender that the person is transitioning to. In addition, depending on what hormone therapy a person is on, most F2M folks can't give birth or have menstruation cycles because the hormone medications will prevent or greatly reduce the amount of estrogen that they produce. quote:
They can change the external groin area appearances, but they cannot change the internal makings. If you are going with biological reproduction ability as a definition, why are you not applying the same standard to women who have full hysterectomies? quote:
Last thing is, to be "Biological" is what nature gave to you. To me, this "Brain of a woman" thingy, is just more like, if I said, I know I look human but I was given a "brain of polar bear". What the hell does that mean? People who throw out the 'trans-species' thing are usually trying to pull a ridiculous comparison. When they come up with some actual science related to it, like they have when it comes to research as they have done in transgendered individuals, I'll reconsider it based on some medical diagnosis. quote:
Also, I think I now understand why you are so strongly defending to see a M2F as a woman. Because you identify as Straight, and you are dating one M2F. For you to feel comfortable with the whole unique orientation, you need to believe she is a Female. But as long as you feel she is Female, that's between you and her! You are happy together. All good on that end! While I agree with you that as long as Steven and Tasha are happy, that's all that matters, I think you are also discounting cis-het people who also see Tasha as female, interact with her as female, or other angles. Wouldn't a person who knows Tasha and sees how others interact with her to be in the better position to make that determination than you or I? quote:
But other people do not need to see her as Female. You honestly don't know that.
