I know... Lazy.

2020-11-27 00:14:42 UTC  

@Beth keep it decent! This is a respectable server!

2020-11-27 00:15:05 UTC  

What did I say?

2020-11-27 00:15:16 UTC  

@Beth joking, madam.

2020-11-27 00:15:35 UTC  

Oh I’m slow today have you noticed? 🤷🏼‍♀️

2020-11-27 00:15:40 UTC  

I have not.

2020-11-27 00:15:46 UTC  

I don’t understand if you are born a male with an xy chromosome and you have male genitalia but somehow your chromosome was impeded to where you did not develop a typical male brain but a more typical female brain. Then you would not be identifying as female you would be reflecting your actual brain structure @Doc

2020-11-27 00:15:51 UTC  

Good 😂

2020-11-27 00:16:20 UTC  

@james j you are assuming this on a model of the brain that is wrong.

2020-11-27 00:16:20 UTC  

Being transgender put a heavy stress in any family

2020-11-27 00:16:22 UTC  

@Doc What are you referring to though with the one person that reproduced with themselves? Is that just a poke at Christianity or something? I'm legitimately curious.

2020-11-27 00:16:36 UTC  

@Maw 10 points. Mary.

2020-11-27 00:16:58 UTC  

Alright, so I am correct. Awesome.

2020-11-27 00:16:58 UTC  

of she didnt, then the holy spirit is a man.

2020-11-27 00:17:05 UTC  

@Doc the brain dictates the person , are you some kind of mind body dualist

2020-11-27 00:17:36 UTC  

Julius Caesar?

2020-11-27 00:17:36 UTC  

No, I am a psychiatrist. The human brain and consciousness is my hobby and profession.

2020-11-27 00:17:53 UTC  

The experience dictates the person.

2020-11-27 00:17:56 UTC  

Okay so you agree that the brain is you right

2020-11-27 00:18:03 UTC  

You are very good at it

2020-11-27 00:18:11 UTC  
2020-11-27 00:18:19 UTC  

So you are a dualist

2020-11-27 00:18:22 UTC  

no

2020-11-27 00:18:39 UTC  

How is the brain not you

2020-11-27 00:18:43 UTC  

if you try to win a discussion here, by categorizing me, it will be chaos.

2020-11-27 00:18:57 UTC  

Phineius gauge being an example of this @Doc

2020-11-27 00:19:04 UTC  

With a more female brain you will end up with being better at certain things than others, it's not a predisposition to your personality.

2020-11-27 00:19:11 UTC  

Your personality is caused by your life experiences.

2020-11-27 00:19:25 UTC  

Nope. Phineas gage is a an example of a brain damage. Not of physiology.

2020-11-27 00:19:31 UTC  

Being female isn’t a personality

2020-11-27 00:19:37 UTC  

Exactly.

2020-11-27 00:19:50 UTC  

Okay but because his brain was damaged he was changed

2020-11-27 00:19:56 UTC  

You are your characteristics

2020-11-27 00:20:01 UTC  

Your components

2020-11-27 00:20:05 UTC  

ok.

2020-11-27 00:20:12 UTC  

Let me know if you have any questions.

2020-11-27 00:20:49 UTC  

So if you are your components and your brain is one of those things then you are your brain

2020-11-27 00:21:21 UTC  

Define you ? What is you in your view if it isn’t just a reflection of brain states

2020-11-27 00:21:39 UTC  

You is the experience of having a consciousness.

2020-11-27 00:21:48 UTC  

Do you think a person with a female brain is more inclined to play with dolls and do "female things"? Or are these cultural?
