You're equating makeup to a physical part of you? Im curious, why do you value the body ovee the brain in terms of what identifies you? Were you to switch bodies with someone, would you become them, or would you still be you? I feel the brain is how we identify who is what, and I know most people already do that without realizing it.

For someone to be born with a vagina and xy chromosomes, they would have CAIS, which is the testosterone "immunity" i spoke of. Were our identity in our chromosomes, youd think those peoppe might feel male at a higher rate at least. But thwy dont, at all. Kinda suggests it's about hormones, doesnt it?

No, I'm implying the opposite. Youd call both of them men. But one has a completely feminized brain, changing how they feel and basically live, and the other just has one small quality.

Your sexuality is... poorly defined. If you were to like someone like buck angel, would you truly be able to call yourself a straight guy, and claim to only like women? What makes the difference for you then? It isnt chromosomes because people with cais dont ever identify as male and are born with a vagina. Is it about developing as female? Id hope youre familiar with the david reimer case by now. Your identity is in you from birth. Body can change. body parts can be lost, gained, destroyed, changed, and whatever. But you are still you because of your consciousness. How can you devalue that so simply. When someone has to have a limb removed, they sont question if they will still be themselves. But the number 1 reason people discontinue taking antidepressants is because they dont feel like themselves. You arent demonstrating how or why the body is more important in identification. Youre just repeating yourself while i keep giving examples of the contrary. where would it change? Would it have to mean changing the entite body, and if so, would it change your mind and identity? If so, do you actually believe youd feel female?
