Extracts from 2nd link that stood out to me
most evidence to date reveals a much larger contribution of sex-related hormones compared to sex-related genes to the sexual differentiation of the rodent brain and behavior
...
studies revealed that feminization and masculinization are independent processes rather than two poles of a continuum
...
And adding to the first link:
[brains whose features align clearly at either male or female end are] low (0% to 8%) and much lower than the number of mosaic brains (23% to 53%), that is, brains in which at least one feature was at the “femaleend” zone and one feature was at the “male-end” zone...
analyses [of MRIs of more than 1,400 human brains from four datasets] of internal consistency reveal that brains with features that are consistently at one end of the "maleness-femaleness" continuum are rare.
Love this statement.💜
Yes of course it is. But thanks for the links, will read.
I'm not presenting anything absolute or probably new. Just a personal take on a correlation between where my gender is and how strongly I feel it, at the different points of my fluidity.
Yup! I considered drawing a locus but decided that a line said enough.
It's been a useful realisation for me that while my gender fluctuates, I feel it less when I'm feeling towards the male side.
love this!
