Not really "fun" so much as "a sad reality of biology", but yes. TyrReborn Send a noteboard - 27/08/2023 09:42:14 PM

Lots of chromosomal anomalies exist: XXY, XXX, XYY, XXYY. And then there are people whose chromosomal sex is not consistent with their phenotypic sex, i.e., karyotypically female but phenotypically male.

Indeed, and those with chromosomal abnormalities should be treated as exactly what they are; an individual, entitled to all the rights and respect as any other person.

Don't mistake my disbelief and disdain for "transgenderism" for disbelief or disdain of actual genetic abnormalities.



I’m largely indifferent to this whole subject because it’s just plain alien to me. What I didn’t see in the discussion was anything on endocrinology and what role it might play in gender dysphoria, if any. I know xenoestrogen is causing girls to hit puberty at a younger age, and it can give boys boobs. So we know it affects the body. Could that lead to somatopsychic — and I do mean somatopsychic, not psychosomatic— changes/conditions? I guess I’m inclined to think that a scientific reason or answer is out there, or at least a possibility.

I'm no endocrinologist so I can't comment on it.

I do agree with you, however; we know that many things in the modern world adversely affect human development. I would not at all be surprised to find out that something we're doing is causing people to "become" "transgender".

I mean, the water is turning the frogs gay, so it's not like anything is really outside the realm of possibility, here.

You're entitled to your optimistic view - 05/08/2023 04:24:33 PM 665 Views
You only think your view is realistic because you haven't studied enough history. - 06/08/2023 04:04:34 PM 698 Views
You're entitled to your optimistic view. *NM* - 06/08/2023 09:18:39 PM 298 Views
Not only is this statistically incorrect, it's historically incorrect. - 08/08/2023 11:35:42 PM 666 Views

I don't think so - 07/08/2023 01:54:05 PM 684 Views
These facts would cause you to be denounced as a "putinite fascist"... - 07/08/2023 05:45:05 PM 644 Views
Well, of course it's going to pass - 07/08/2023 06:55:12 PM 707 Views
Tom, you are being far too reasonable. That doesn’t fly in 2023! *NM* - 08/08/2023 12:22:49 AM 302 Views

I just can't buy that the political and academic class will give up their grip so easily. - 08/08/2023 05:49:58 PM 635 Views
Academics have been pro Marxism for over 100 years. It's nothing new. *NM* - 08/08/2023 05:59:55 PM 309 Views
Maybe. But they've never been this spiteful or spoiled before. - 09/08/2023 01:29:30 PM 615 Views
No, they only recruited students to spy for the Soviets *NM* - 14/08/2023 06:18:58 PM 296 Views
Yes. They do that now, too. Except it's the Chinese. *NM* - 14/08/2023 09:51:37 PM 301 Views

I may be no endocrinologist, but I at least understand simple biology. XY =/= XX =/= XXY - 28/08/2023 05:40:14 PM 606 Views
Simple is definitely true. Shame you never learned biology past what you were taught in high school. - 28/08/2023 11:21:38 PM 628 Views

Maybe not - 12/08/2023 03:38:50 PM 669 Views
Most of us don't really like "the gays," either. And referring to people as "blacks" is offensive. *NM* - 13/08/2023 12:34:32 AM 296 Views
