Having to manscape is an all afternoon affair bro.

why you make this so weird.
you have ether X and X
or X and Y

and that determinates your sex.
and mutilating your body doesnt change that.

for sure

oh sure, chromosomes are one thing but there is difference between male and female brain, if you are born with brain closer to the female norm you might experience disphoria with your body and you can fill in the blank from there

some peope might not even notice, some people can deal with it, some need transition

"brain closer to the female norm"
source plz

so you can determinate sex by scanning brain?
if so shouldnt that be reguirement for sex change?

>you either have xx or xy
Not strictly true
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosome_abnormality

And there are two reasons for someone transitioning outside socjus shit
One is brain scan shit
One is just extreme dysphoria
Both should be a last resort basically

Bio is still going to pump you full of E or T. It doent care what your brain says.

you dont threat mentall illnes with surgery...

Actually they used to. #lobotomy

That's actually not really true at all

Epilepsy in extreme cases is treated with brain surgery basically

In which they cut through the corpus callosum

There's probably a number of other similar instances tbh, and we'll probably find more as time goes on

yea

Mental illness is essentially just errant brain function and the brain is a physical organ

sorry, had to run off

S'all good

I think it might be a case of loving who you are. Kind of accepting who you are maybe?

I guess thats what people define mental illness as I guess. What if a brain tumour is causing something, does removing count as well?

Actually another question

there is difference between mental illness and neurological disorder😉

Do brain tumours cause mental illness?

There is a huge difference Jasse for sure.

and beemann was using example of curing neurological disorder by surgery
And comparing that to mentall illnes.

Mental illness though is one of those things people dont talk bout much anymore

And the difference between the two is kinda just... not really discussed unless you are an expert on the topic.

Even when you're talking specifically about mental illness we primarily treat that physically

If only its something that is diagnosed as such.

Problem with mental illness though is that its.. very specific

Sure, we don't just go out handing pills and electroconvulsive therapy to randos

Also people cant be trusted to continue their treatment. What if they stop taking their pills for instance

And they rebound violently

But the topic in question was extreme, diagnosed cases of dysphoria

Which is generally treated with pills (not surgery) with elective plastic surgery

And which can be caused by differences in brain structure

Psyco vs physical

Didnt they treat that with vibrators?

There are physical and psychological bases for dysphoria
