Genetic Basis For Transgender?


Maid In Bedlam

Recommended Posts

I looked into the genetics of transgender Wondering if there was a clue to my own and many others dysphoria

 

I was surprised to find that recently there was a study into this and from the early results it would seem there could be a link.

 

The implications would be dramatic. Consider this, If it is genetic then for instance what we may have been assigned at birth may be medically proven to be inacurate.  Therefore Should genetics play a part then no one could ever wrongly class gender dyshoria as a mental illness which anyone who has actually tried to answer that question would know its to do with the makeup of the brain. Thats what i have deduced from my own studys. The brain is diffrent for people with dysphoria but the question is why is it diffrent?

A genetic link between gender dysphoria and sex hormone signalling

 

Being honest i havent seen any publicity really concerning these findings. I have drawn my own conclusions as to why.

 

I think there is a post on this subject previously but this would appear to be the latest study and is a very convincing read.

GD comes from a whole list of sources but not all of them happen in each person, and they may come from the body doing its own "genetic engineering" just because it can.   I have two known genetic "variances" that may  play some part in GD. since both are prevalent in male to female Trans people.  What those variances do to actually cause the GD is still under investigation. 

 

One of the things I have is a duplicated sequence of a hormone receptor cell gene.  At the more frequent single sequence it helps in the use of Testosterone, at double length it prevents the most effective use of T.  It may theoretically be the reason that E makes me feel better and more myself.

 

Scientists are discovering "chemical switches" on some genes that have an "Off,  On #1, On #2  and even wider ranges in some places.  It will depend on how those switches get thrown as to what and how a person will behave in the LGBTQ* spectrum.  Narrow minded people who need things on or off without another choice go crazy and hit their own Binary switch so hard they have broken it and think the broken switch works just fine.

      Quite true.  The amusing thing about opposites is how similar they can be.   My family left Greece because of the conflict between the communists and the militarists/fascists.

      This wouldn't even be a problem if they would just leave us alone.  It is a no-brainer.

      OMG.  I'm glad it wasn't worse, and you were able to get on it quickly.  Lots of blood can be scary.

      Like I said, I'm no tankie, but I do see a world of difference between Joseph Stalin and Bernie Sanders.   If the point is not wanting 'government control' the Right is pretty good at that themselves - as they've been demonstrating lately. This stuff gets complicated.

      So, I am curious. Is the Governor going to mandate vaginal or penile recognition photos before one enters the restroom? Considering the Governor has no balls to do the right thing, will he have to pee against a tree outside? Inquiring minds would like to know. I love it when the job recruiters contact me about the wonderful jobs available in Oklahoma. It is so much fun telling them there is no way I will ever go to Oklahoma. When there are no workers, then they can shutter the place.

      Ngl, probably Sonic the Hedgehog, the Beatles, or the Monkees. Those are the three subjects I know the most about so I could drop hours of info on them.

      Isaac Asimov, Albert Einstein and Robert Kennedy, in that order.

      Thank you! I'm out of coffee so I have been drinking hot tea instead. Looking forward to the 1st. It's crazy that we are almost in May. This year has flown by really quick! Good to hear that y'all got to sleep in. Hope you have a good weekend too!

      It's nice to care about others but you need to live your life as you please. No one be your only source of happiness. Love yourself and don't look back. I lost over 40 family members it hurts but apparently, they didn't truly love me. True love will always be there through the thick and thin. I can honestly say that HRT has made me think in ways that I never thought I would. I get myself some shoes or clothes every month because retail therapy not only helps but it is a reward to myself to show love. I have over 100 dresses. I have a whole walk-in-closet full of clothes and 67 pairs of shoes. I love who I am. I was born in 84 so not all people in the 80's think that way. As far as the name just take your time and be happy with it. I knew I loved the name Ashley. Take care and welcome!

      WOW @Ashley0616 it’s good that you have skills to treat traumatic injuries, as well as the ability to remain calm while managing others needs to get yourself and the boys ready to go to the hospital. Proud mama bear skills. I’m glad that he’s doing well.    Meanwhile back at the ranch, we slept in and I’m just now finishing my 3rd cup of coffee.    Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      Well yesterday was not fun. I was getting ready to make dinner and I hear screaming and crying. I look over and my son put his foot through glass. He gashed near his Achilles tendon. Thankfully that is intact. I didn't freeze for a second. All of my military training came into play. I doctored him up and got Jett ready and myself and we headed to the ER. He is doing ok today. He says he is in pain but doesn't need Tylenol. He is a tough cookie!

      Hi,   It's seems today is my trans birthday.  I'm beyond excited. Just picked up my testogel from the pharmacy. Although I naturally have doubts as I'm sure do we all, they are rapidly disappearing. Yesterday I was so nervous I kept claiming I'm not trans, despite grinning like a fool knowing I can pick up my prescription the next day. I'm shaking and on the verge of happy tears. I will put on my first sachet this eve. Thanks so much to this forum and kind words from people. This is the first forum I found when I began seriously questioning.
