Why Brains Are Gendered
from Beetroot on 02/03/2019 01:35 AMIn this post I will copy-paste several of my arguments I have written out on why brains are gendered, as well as why gender genderfluidity is impossible.
What makes a person dysphoric is the levels of white brain matter vs grey brain matter in the four regions of the brain. These differences make up the two brain sexes: The male brain and the female brain. Female brains have a higher percentage of grey matter, while men have a higher percentage of white matter and CSF. The white/grey matter ratio in females is consistently higher in the frontal, temporal, parietal, and occipatal lobes, as well as in the cingulate gyrus and insula. In the parietal cortex, there is thicker grey matter in female than in males, which has been shown consistently throughout lifespans. Also, the straight gyrus, a narrow strip that runs along the midline on the undersurface of the frontal lobe, is about 10% larger in females than males.
To add onto the gender differences, a male brain has larger absolute volumes in the intracranial space (12%), total brain (11%), cerebrum (10%), grey matter (9%), white matter (13%), regions filled with CSF (11.5%), and cerebellum (9%). Males on average have larger volumes and higher tissue densities in the left amygalda, hippocampus, insular cortex, and putamen. Not to mention that they have higher densities in the right VI lobe of the cerebellum and in the left claustrum, and larger volumes in the bilateral anterior parahippocampul gyri.

confused, would like some help
from green on 01/31/2019 09:51 PMi have been wondering on and off if am trans. i'm a firm believer that you need dysphoria, but i'm just unsure if what i am feeling is that. i've read experiences of trans people and identified with several issues, but i am afraid i'm just confused. i don't want to start asking everyone to use a different name and pronouns with me, but at the same time i think that would help me better understand what it is i'm feeling? i am biologically female, and i've been questioning this with ranging intensity for about 2 years. recently i've been thinking about it a lot more again as i noticed things i felt uncomfortable with that my friends found weird when i brought up. a big example of this is that during my period, i feel insanely uncomfortable with my body and breasts. not in the way of normal cramps, but a really intense feeling of discomfort in my body and wanting to rip myself out of my skin. some other smaller things that i know aren't individually telling, but altogether are adding to me questioning are that i wear primarily baggy or oversized clothes, i tend to relate more to my male friends, and i generally notice that i dissociate my face from my body. i'm bisexual, and i generally like how my body looks, but (for a lack of a better way to put this) from a 2nd person view. it doesn't feel like mine, it's like appreciating someone else's figure and dissociating it from my own. when i focus on thinking of my body as mine, i often wish i had a flat chest. when i take into consideration some of the procedures of transition , i would like top surgery and for my voice to be deeper . any help figuring this out would be greatly appreciated

I don't know if anyone has seen this, and I honestly don't remember how I came across it. Usually tucute/mogai stuff doesn't bother me too much? But I'm legit pissed

I also cannot even begin to understand this
I mean...even though there are some pretty ridiculous "genders" out there that I don't believe are real, I still kind of understand the reasoning behind them? But this....I'm just done
Essay on Gender
from awkward_flamingo24 on 01/25/2019 03:00 AMNot really a debate, but I wrote an essay for a project in English. We're supposed to pick a topic that is really broad, so I picked gender. I thought I would let y'all read it (I'm not looking for edits) and see what y'all think.

tucute loves misgendering me
from Cas.KingOfTea on 01/23/2019 06:18 PMis it me or do tucutes love doing shi.t that provokes a lot of gender dysphoria? because in my experience tucutes love nothing more than that.
examples:
* i asked a tucute to stop calling me gurl (because i actually have gender dysphoria unlike sOMe pEoPLE(not saying they don't since i cant know that, though i doubt it)) and they pulled up some dumbass story about calling everyone gurl (dude idgaf about that)
* d e a d n a m e everywhere, even tho i've also asked to call me a nickname at the very least
* refused to stop calling me bi.tch (?why?)
(* maybe a bit far fetched but it seemed like they were actively looking for opportunities to call me the wrong pronouns)
also they claim to be very scientific but say they're genderfluid... and are a tucute... uhh
yikes
