  1. Good thing you didn't quoted me since that isn't a scientific paper, let alone a pier reviewed one.
  2. You could summarize that article like this:

"They found significant differences between male and female brains in four regions of white matter – and the female-to-male transsexual people had white matter in these regions that resembled a male brain".

And then:

"Guillamon isn't sure whether the four regions are at all associated with notions of gender, but Ivanka Savic-Berglund at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden, thinks they might be".

And that is that.

No talk about the genetic "screw up". Lets try again.

Too lazy to go through peer reviewed stuff, it's no one's job to educate you but yourself but it just seems like you are being purposely difficult, as usual.

Define "screw up" for me please, because GID is exactly what Smokescreened said.

I believe he is referencing this statement: "For those who are trans* those genes screw up and have them born with the wrong physical sex that doesn't match their internal gender."

@lostrib: But... that's what GID is unless I'm missing something here?

Gender Identity Disorder is the diagnosis for someone who does not identify with the gender they were "assigned" at birth. I think he's looking for research on what specific genetic problems occur that result in GID, and how exactly those genes "screw up." Basically what is the genetic connection that results in someone being born with a physical sex that does not match their internal gender

Oh.

Well in that case I do not think there is a definitive answer. The common theory is that it occurs because of chromosomal abnormalities or some kind of hormone imbalance during pregnancy. How or why it occurs I have no idea.

Which of course is a trick question since that question hasn't been conclusively answered yet by scientists.
