Voted no...you still have your short sword down there.... I could not in good conscience call a person with there Johnson still in tact a woman.  Although most differences between man and woman can never be changed, the brain.  The mind's of women and men work different.

[ladyattis]

Well, I pointed out the Brain sex studies that state transsexuals do have brains like that of genetic females. Thusly, that makes such people no different than females being exposed to a steroid.

remember, this is just meant to be based on purely physical means (the female shriner pics)... not how you feel...

[ladyattis]

So Brain sex isn't physical/material? Hah, whatever, dude.

-- Bridget

[Grey]

heh here we go again....

ok... no... actually, let's not...

like I've said, thoughts are intangible and although your own are indeed very real to yourself - as are mine - neither are tangible.... but the shriner place is something based on the shallow, physical idea that actual born-females have their pics in their... so who cares, really.

No thoughts are tangible as they are formed in the body as part of the brain and nervous system. Period and end of story.

This conversation gives a whole new meaning to the term "mindfuck".

he's a man but thinks he's a woman... it's not about being "nice" (or at least, I thought so...I guess I can't blame Ian for not wanting to offend... but still, it seems so PC by doing so)...it's about posting pics of females. plain and simple. He is not a woman.

the end.

AGREED.

First of all, if you are going to make such outrageous claims, the least you can do is provide links.  Where are these studies?  And WHO did them?  Pay special attention to who funded them.  I want to know, as do all others with any decency and an education.  Besides, why should we extend any courtesy to you when you and others such as yourself extend none toward the "conspiracy theorists" of these boards who have proven their weight in gold ten times over as far as I am concerned.  Minus Awakenfree, of course.  But that's another ball game.  You would probably like him.

Anyway.  Show me the (money) proof, Gus.

Because you asked for it here is a link of a scientific study of human brain sex determination.

  I will restate this in an easier to read version.

  Should Bridget Stay on the Shrine?    It is a preference question not a question based on what you think of her personal lifestyle choice.  It is not a scientific question on the merits of her individual case.  It is not a question of how someone might be a fraud in the future and how that will make you angry.  This isn't a health club bathroom it is just a picture on the web. 

In fact if you succeed in disallowing her to express herself openly as a tranny.  You will be making an environment where fraud is more likely to occure.  If trannys are so upsetting to you. One would think that you would want to know up front who is and who isn't one right away.  Because alot of trannys can pass unless they told you the difference.

And just because something might be PC doesn't automatically make it a bad thing.  Medical Marijuana is PC but not a bad thing.  You have to look at an issue a little deeper than just dismissing it as PC.

Another link to gender and gender identification in a medical essay.  They are in the Tampa area maybe a guess spot potential down the road?  http://hermaphrodite.arriba.net/multi.htm

a fart is more tangible than a thought... you can directly hear, smell...and if you're unlucky, see it.  It can be measured on physical terms.  Again, thoughts certainly can not be gauged by any of these methods...  I'm not talking about where they're formed, I'm talking about them specifically.  Thoughts themselves are just that... ideas...opinons... all conjured up in your head.
I mean, c'mon, that is grade school science - remember making those volcanoes w/ red dye, paper mache, vinegar and baking soda?? these were all physical ingredients... what do you think the teacher would say if billy said "can I just think to add those things, will that be good enough?"... um, no sorry, billy.  They won't be, b/c thoughts are intangible.  You must physically, w/ your hands, add and mix them.  Can you directly touch or pick up a thought? uh, no.

Look it up (in a science not philosophy book).  You'll be sorrily mistaken.

[Puke]

Hah, fart.

[MobileDigit]

Can you directly touch or pick up a thought? uh, no.

Great logic genius, so atoms are intangible too then, ey?
