I have a similar fear. But, I don't think it works that way! Any gendered differences between brains seem slight enough that they aren't reliable, just maybe a hint. It also reminds me of when a partner pushed me (depressed agender, now happily transitioning) towards transition and I reacted poorly. The "trans prime directive" can be frustrating but it exists for a reason. People have to come to that realization on their own, or they'll often reject it for a while. "Your brain has a 60% chance of being more male than female" doesn't sound convincing compared to all the clues I was in denial about.

I read somewhere that the shift was decided because the colour red was seen as a romantic colour, and so was pink then by association. Women were seen as more “romantic” and so therefore the colour pink was assigned to them. I don’t know which is true, though yours does sound more likely

I don't think it has anything to do w Hitler. Back then why would they want there little boys to be associated w femininity and being gay. Obviously it was frowned-upon for a male to be feminine and gay. I've actually read why pink was a "boys colour" and blue was a "girls colour". Apparently they said pink was seen as a strong colour and was good for a boy as it was a shade of red and blue was seen good for girls because of the Virgin Mary who wore blue and it also was seen as a delicate colour.

yeah no that's what I heard and pink was for boys because pink was seen as a strong colour and blue was more delicate.

I read the reason it changed was because the suffergettes wore pink(male colour). How do you spell suffergette?

so i'm still trying to figure myself out but as of now i also identify as non-binary because of multiple reasons and i've also self diagnosed myself with autism ---- i know, i will try to get a proper diagnosis in the near future but i've been researching about autism now for two or more years and i constantly find new things that also apply to me. not everything of course but quite enough things to self diagnose myself i guess... so what i actually wanted to say is that i find your comment really interesting cause i've noticed after being around the autistic community online that there seem to be a lot more trans people than in neurodiverget communities. and i feel like i actually heard of more autistic people who identify as non binary than as a binary gender. maybe i just feel like that's the case because i personally can relate more to these people so i tend to notice and remember them more but i do think that there is an interesting affect of autism on gender. and i think it's kinda funny that you are as well non binary and autistic :D

@@jerrypie1230 i'm also non binary and (also self diagnosed, hard to get a diagnosis because life) autistic!

Very good post! A little hard to read because it is all one paragraph, but still very interesting.

@Jackson Smith - OP is nonbinary and autistic - - There is a higher percentage of trans people in the autistic population than in the population overall. This means some people could argue that there is a biological brain component of being trans. - - But, since autistic people can struggle to take in external socialization cues, so it could also be that gendered socialization just doesn't "work" as effectively on them, leading to more being out as trans. - - OP appreciates how the video talked about complexity instead of just trying to argue one answer. - - For OP, secondary sex characteristics (like the chest) caused more dysphoria after they realized that it served no functional purpose for them other than signaling their birth sex to others. - - I hope this helps! Lmk if you want me to shorten it more

im non-binary and autistic too, and I/ve researched this topic before, its honestly pretty facinating!

We’re glad you changed your mind and gave it chance!

Glad we could help you reminisce!

I sometimes wonder if trans people would experience less dysphoria if our societies were way less sexist than they are currently. Like, we gender so many things, the shape of the leg tubes we call clothing, colours, food and drink, hobbies, jobs, everything is gendered, it's ridiculous. If we didn't do that, would trans people only experience dysphoria from their bodies, and not from say, the way they stand, or the things they wear or do? I suspect that might alleviate at least the gender role part of dysphoria?

@@AnnekeOosterink same I wonder too I mean we could have just learn the concept Identity≠body

@@AnnekeOosterink For some it very likely would alleviate it. Some of us have our dysphoria a little or even greatly alleviated just by having people we care about accept our gender identity and use our preferred pronouns.

@@cameronrodriguez9242 How about you shut the fuck up before I make your pronouns was/were

Thank you very much for this explanation. As a parent of a trans son I am trying hard to understand the personal experience as well as the science surrounding transexuality. However I learned and understood more from your comment than from this entire video... and more. I think your kind of measured and insightful explanation is exactly what many who are learning about the subject of transexuality is exactly what we all need. The kind of inane and immature banter in this video might be great for those who've already made up their minds that gender is non binary, as it does its best to assert that view, but for me who has been searching for something sensible, serious and genuinely informative from media sites supporting the trans 'movement' it's just another video of chit chat and childishess and tip toing around the important questions

I definitely believe there’s brain structural reasonings for gender, but it’s not as simple as “male” or “female.” Just like other sex traits, it’s not completely binary

I’ve read about studies that say the brains of trans women are structurally very similar to the brains of cis women. Not sure how many brains were looked at, but just something I found interesting. I agree that we don’t know enough yet to say definitively, but we do know that brain structure can change so it would make sense that if you transition, your brain kinda does too? Either way, male and female is still a social construct. There may be biological differences, but it’s always a spectrum which kinda makes any binary labels arbitrary. 🤷

I can sleep a lot easier now, albeit I still have nights of paranoia/staring at shapes with a quickened heartbeat/weird noises making me shoot up in bed, but I'm not hysterically crying every night until I pass out from exhaustion, so I'm taking it as a huge win. Even now though, I can't like walk through dark hallways for very long, there's impending doom and it gets worse and worse with every second I'm in the dark until I'm sprinting around the house in a fight-or-flight flight reaction. Usually followed by panting/mild panic attack and distractions to cope. Also I find it so aggravating that B didn't acknowledge A's reasons to be "valid". I don't know if A had OCD, but for me, my monsters don't have a "reason". I know that there's no real reason I will suddenly have to press my back to the bathroom wall or peek out the curtains to make sure (we'll use abbreviations aka first letter of my names for them to save people peace of mind, plus they can sound cliche since I named them after prominent features lol.) W wasn't there, or that SM wasn't behind me (aka standing against the wall). I can't explain why I panic when walking to my room at night, glancing over my shoulder and seeing flickers of what could be, even though I know it's just my head. I can't explain why I can't deny that these monsters are real, because they are to me, even though I know they aren't like in real life, even though they logically make no sense. You don't have to have a perfect explanation to have someone stop causing you distress...

The second one is the big any tangerine because hes mad about all the facts

Even if a trans woman had the brain of a woman, they were still born in a male body which is different from females. All JK Rowling wants is that very simple difference and basic biological fact to be acknowledged and for women to able to describe their own unique experience. It's hard for women to share prisons or combat sports with male bodied people. That doesn't just magically change if you got the brain of a woman.

Thank you and I love you guys. Love is love is love. I understand that it is relatively had-wired for our species to categorise and how useful it can be. However, in many, possibly most cases, categories lead us into making serious errors and block the understanding of complex issues. I must try to watch earlier and future podcasts.

It's interesting to hear that you're coming from a perspective like that! People's understanding of gender fluidity has changed a lot since the 70s, and a lot of what we see about trans people from that time is a lot more binary than what we see today. So I'm a bit curious what your experience with that has been. In your experience, did non-binary presenting individuals ever come to you for help, or was being trans strictly a male/female binary? Obviously society wasn't quite nearly ready to accept gender fluidity back then, but I wonder how much gender fluidity existed on an individual level. I assume a lot of trans people performed a lot within the binary to be accepted, but if there were people presenting as gender-fluid that would be really cool to know 😊

@@Bakuze_n Wow! This calls for a lengthy essay or series of anecdotes, which I'm not going write here. It feels true that the trans people I saw in the 1970s tended to be much more binary in their thoughts about gender. Many MTF patients were coming to transition later in life and some wanted to look young and beautiful in floaty, frothy dresses and stiletto heels. They were unhappy to know that they would always look like drag queens and be unconvincing as beautiful women. My views on non-binary people come from within and outside people identifying as trans. For example, I had a client who was a professional wrestler. He said that when he was attracted to a woman he was very masculine, preferring to have sex doggy style and treated women rather badly and coldly. When he was attracted to a man, he felt feminine wanted to be wooed, caressed; have sex on his back while the other man penetrated him and they could lovingly look into each others eyes. I met men who didn't know what their sexual orientation was; they might think of no one when wanking or if they thought of someone it would be affection (cuddling and kissing) with someone male or female but nothing sexual or erotic. "Am I bisexual?", they might ask me and I would say, "Maybe the better word is bi-amorous." I had a MTF trans woman in the early 1980s, who was quite clear that she wanted to look and dress more or less as she was before that. She wanted to continue being a motor mechanic and saw no reason for family, friends or workmates to know that she was a woman and was happy if they would assume that she was a man. She didn't want to have sex with anyone and saw no reason to physically transition. She just wanted to know that she and I could accept that she was a woman no matter what she looked like or what she did in her life. I saw many men living a hyper-masculine lifestyle (military, police, boxer etc), who wanted to dress as a glamorous woman in order to be ultra-feminine and to relax from the pressures of conforming to masculine stereotypes and expectations. Later I saw people who sometimes dressed and behaved in a feminine way and sometimes in a masculine way. I could never predict whether the next time they would come to sessions like a girl or boy or rather unisexual. And I also worked with men and women who had no sexual feelings about anyone. Some of them resented having genitals (and women might deeply resent periods). "These things are useless to me. I'm never going to use them." I met FTM individuals that only wanted mastectomies and hysterectomies but didn't care about having testosterone, let alone wanting a penis. Others that would rather have a large strap-on penis when having sex with women than have a small dick. Many people who had thought of themselves as gay or straight came to realise that sexual feelings and attractions did not fit neatly into watertight boxes. As other labels became available they wanted to work with me on finding a new label - bi, bi-curious, gay-curious, polysexual, ambisexual. I would offer them the possibility that they didn't need to have a label. "I'm sexual in the way that I am sexual, uniquely orientated sexually". Each of these patients/clients made me re-examine and re-evaluate my thoughts, feelings, opinions and beliefs in a lengthy process. I am grateful to them, as they came to terms and understand themselves, they also taught me and prompted me to change my understanding and form more flexible concepts. I hope that this quite lengthy but in many ways incomplete reply helps you and others to read it.

@@raylightbown4968 Wow, thanks for elaborating! I guess what every individual's journey comes down to is finding out how they can comfortably navigate the world they live in, with the unique set of characteristics that they have. Cool to hear of so many different kinds of people, and that you were there to help them explore these kinds of matters :)

Ray Lightbown if you happen to record a series of vids talking about your experiences, I don't think I'd be the only person who would watch them. This sounds fascinating - history, psychology, cultural shifts over five decades, and gender and sexual identity all tied up together!

Whatever you do, remember that you do NOT have to come out-- either at all, or to specific people, or at a specific time... It's often much safer to move away or find a support system first. Since there's queer people born in every town, you may have a local support group you just have to find. If you know ANY out queer people, try asking them if possible. I'm sorry you're scared. I know how it is. There are millions of people going through it with you. But the good news it you have a lot to gain from this situation. You're at the starting block ready to race. Just do things on your own time and as it suits you. You'll get where you need to go. Good luck.

I grew up like that and it took until 8 years after I moved out of there to a big city to finally start to accept and even allow myself to explore who I really was (lesbian first then no actually a guy). So, unfortunately or fortunately, however you want to look at it, you've been chosen to get the fuck out of there and have your own life. Put yourself in a more open-minded environment, find new friends/family, and start to get to know yourself/who you really are and gain your confidence. You can hold off and keep ignoring it but it will get worse to push you out until you acknowledge it and do something

I think the answer is 'gender isn't a social construct, despite what people would like to believe,' and that we're at the very least wired to experience it on a spectrum. I've thought a lot about this too and I've had about 9 years of knowing and accepting that I'm trans to consider it when I couldn't before. Gender is NOT a social construct. MANY of our gender markers or indicators ARE. But we'd still be dysphoric even if we didn't dress in stuffy suits and flowy dresses.

It would be really useful to teach stuff like this at schools but, unfortunately, conservatives constantly fight against this and keep calling it "indoctrination" 🙄 (not at all like teaching religion since a really early age, that's not indoctrination at all...)

"Transitioning" (as you worded it), is to BLATANTLY LIE to yourself, man, and God about who you are! Gender pronouns are an IMMUTABLE part of your BIOLOGICAL SEX! It is absolutely CHILDISH to believe that you get a say as to what pronouns people address you as! So-called "transitioning" does NOT give you, or anyone the "right" to "change" gender pronouns! You're not being "misgendered" if you're being addressed by words or pronouns that refer to your biological sex. To be offended by reality, and to live in a fantasy world of lies, is absolutely pathetic! FYI, no one is "trans" or "cis". You are what you were created as biologically in the womb, not what you say you are based on confused "feelings"! You don't get a say or choice as to what gender you are! It's an automatic part of biology only! Quit living in a fantasy world of fairy-tale fiction, and ideological nonsense! Get proper psychological help to accept who you are biologically, and get out of the toxic lies, and harmful ideology of transgenderism! I don't care how much a confused man calls himself the nonsense of "trans woman". He's a MAN, and he needs to accept that instead of living in a LIE! Likewise, I don't care how much a confused woman calls herself the fairy-tale nonsense of "trans man". She's a WOMAN, and she needs to accept that FACT, instead of playing imaginary, make-believe games! If these people are competing in sports, they should ONLY compete in sports that go according to BIOLOGY rather than FANTASY! If they don't like it, then they can sod off, because they are PERVERTS! Good riddance! The same should apply to toilet and changing rooms. I don't care how much you lie, and falsely call yourself the opposite gender to what you are, you don't belong there, full-stop!

Me too, I’m trying to educate myself because I’ve just never been taught about the difference between gender and sex and what gender even means. It’s sad because it’s universal to everyone: we all have a gender identity and it’s so confusing when we’re not even told what that is. And being ignorant towards it can cause issues, especially since it makes you more prone to prejudice or can make you be unwittingly offensive to others. We really should be taught and if we’re not now it’s on us to teach ourselves. But I’m glad to see lots of schools are stepping up with sex and gender education and I really hope it continues.

@@rosiesinc4917 men and women go bald most women just hide it tho

My early doctor discussions regarding my PCOS was about excessive fat cells created excessive androgen hormones. Later finding out that wasn't that simple. Underlying insulin resistance, leading to excessive insulin production, caused imbalances in hormones and, trying to remember now, dhea blockers causing hair growth on chin and chest and thinning head hair (female pattern balding?)

you're totally right, but it is also important for someone to be genuinely sure of why they believe they are trans, and the true meaning behind the way they feel. For example, lots of people who detransition thought they were trans, but they were simply confused or misinformed on what being trans really is. Which can then later damage these people later in life! Obviously we need to respect everyone, and use the correct language, but it is important to go deep into ourselves before making life-changing decisions. Your insight was really great btw :)

Aleena Parker of course it’s important to ensure everyone that transitions is trans and not confused, but using language like ‘are you sure you’re trans?’ Can be dangerous, imo the best way to be sure is to wait at least a year before transition, that way you have plenty of time to make sure you know and are more comfortable with the different pronouns

Addylen West also, the percentage of trans people detransitioning is wildly overstated - all the statistics I've seen are 1% or less. Compare that to the regret rate for life saving surgery such as organ transplants to really put it into perspective! Psychologically, a person who is being pressured about their trans identity doesn't have room to examine what they want in life anyway. It's better if rest of us just say "okay" and use their correct pronouns and support them, and let them figure out in their own time what they need in terms of surgery and hormones. Everybody is different!
