While the term is ridiculously over-used, “Gender Identity” is very real and hard-wired in the brain while you’re still in your mother’s womb. Your brain has to know – on a fundamental, sub-conscious level - which gender your body is, and in the case of men this identity results in neuron-nodes that are not normally present in women. For instance, one node men have in the hypothalamus – that women do not have – regulates hormones in such a way as to make mens bodies larger and stronger than womens bodies.

There are other hard-wired behaviors not normally shared between the sexes, such as the inclination toward predatory behaviour being far stronger in men than women – an inclination which complements the larger body and results in men usually being The Hunter in societies and relationships.

If a male fetal body doesn’t imprint the brain to develop the neural nodes and patterns needed to spur basic male behavioral tendencies, the child will be born with a male body and a basically female brain. This often results in behaviors emerging in boys as young as 4, which seem to be at odds with their gender. Sometimes – usually after puberty – this conflict between the brain and body can spread to the conscious mind, creating clinical Gender Dysphoria: a condition where even the higher brain conceptualizations won’t deal with the actual gender of the body.

Having this problem is like being born without arms: something went wrong in the fetus, and it’s not repairable. The child is just screwed. The only thing worse than this kids problem, is the way that everyone in the article seems to be dealing with it. What a joke.
