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

Good 😂

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

Being transgender put a heavy stress in any family

@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.

@Maw 10 points. Mary.

Alright, so I am correct. Awesome.

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

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

Julius Caesar?

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

The experience dictates the person.

Okay so you agree that the brain is you right

You are very good at it

@james j no

So you are a dualist

no

How is the brain not you

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

Phineius gauge being an example of this @Doc

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.

Your personality is caused by your life experiences.

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

Being female isn’t a personality

Exactly.

Okay but because his brain was damaged he was changed

You are your characteristics

Your components

ok.

Let me know if you have any questions.

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

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

You is the experience of having a consciousness.

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

And the consciousness is a product of electric waves.

very complex ones.

Okay and your consciences is dependent on you brain

a fraction of which are visible on EEG

No.

It is much more complex than that.

Where are all these electrical waves then
