I bow before your superior Google-Fu. I have never been able to find such. Admittedly, I wasn't looking too hard. There are some other priorities in my life. Thank you. I look forward to reading these.
SO in skimming over these, particularly the paper and not the article (both by the same person for readers who didn't follow the links), it seems that Hanley is taking data and making predictions based upon what we know now, and not any actual studies on how many, if any, transgenders and homo/bisexuals are macrochimeric. He seems to be following the same ideas that I formed on my own when I had learned about human chimeras several years ago. What I found the most interesting was how the different parts of the body are formed by different parts of the initial zygote/blastocyst. If that pans out it puts all of this in a whole new perspective. For some at least, yes they were born this way. So I would definitely like to see some practical studies on this. It also explains why I didn't find this at first. Weak searching skills to start, but I was looking for the studies, and these were not actual studies.
It is impossible to raise a child to be transgdered any more than it is to raise a child to be autistic or be blind. They are either born trans or they are not, just as people are born gay/lesbian or bi, or they are born heterosexual. These gender characteristics are innate at both and the best thing the p[arent can do is to make sure if the child shows re expresses trans feelings is to see that they get the care that they need to grow up happy and confident instead of disciplining them for those feelings and trying to force them to repress them.You cant raise a kid to be trans if they are not for long. Dr. Money’s failure demonstrates that.
Background
Transgender women (TGW) in the U.S. experience high rates of stigma, depression, and elevated rates of suicide. This study examined correlates of suicidal ideation and estimated the conditional indirect effects of perceived stigma and psychosocial mediators on suicidal ideation.
Methods
Using a cross-sectional study design, TGW (N = 92) were recruited through snowball sampling in Atlanta, Georgia. Structured interviews were conducted. Suicidal ideation was assessed by combining two variables that measured suicidal thoughts. Logistic regression models were performed to identify the potential risk and protective factors for suicidal ideation. We examined hypothesized psychosocial factors, including anxiety, depression, psychosocial impact of gender minority status, and substance use behaviors as potential mediators for the relationship between perceived stigma and suicidal ideation. All models were controlled for age, race, education, and homelessness.
Results
Suicidal ideation was reported by 33% (N = 30) of the study participants. In multivariable analysis, suicidal ideation was associated with sexual abuse (AOR = 3.17, 95% CI = 1.10–9.30), anxiety (AOR = 1.74, 95% CI = 1.10–2.73), family verbal abuse (AOR = 2.99, 95% CI = 1.10–8.40), stranger verbal abuse (AOR = 3.21, 95% CI = 1.02–10.08), and psychosocial impact of gender minority status (AOR = 3.42, 95% CI = 1.81–6.46). Partner support was found to be the protective factor for suicidal ideation (AOR = 0.34, 95% CI = 0.13–0.90). In the mediation analysis, the psychosocial impact of gender minority status mediated the relationship between perceived stigma and suicidal ideation. The estimated conditional indirect effect was 0.46, (95% CI = 0.12–1.11).
Conclusion
Interventions that aim to reduce suicidal behaviors among TGW should address stigma, psychosocial impact of gender minority status, and different forms of violence and abuse.
No we weren't, and still aren't, I just let it go.You two are actually on the same page.
Do you have any idea how homophobic it is to say a male who is attracted to a female can call themselves a lesbian. Are we just trampling over gay and lesbian culture and heritage now?
I'd like for him to explain how that tramples over gay and lesbian culture or heritage? This is a new level of ignorance and he has started to tunnel.
Im confident its just a failed and very poorly thought out gaslighting attempt lolI'd like for him to explain how that tramples over gay and lesbian culture or heritage? This is a new level of ignorance and he has started to tunnel.
The mind as the seat of human gender has been accepted by the medical community for more than 50 years, even before John Money tried to change a person's psychological gender identity in his attempt to answer the question if that idea was created as a result of nature or nurture. Aristaeus can whine and rage at the existence of transgender people to his heart's content but he is tilting at windmills more than 50 years old.Im confident its just a failed and very poorly thought out gaslighting attempt lol
since its subjective
see the subjective and the huge hypocrisy now?
what? poor? medical schools?

They might say they’re a woman on the inside. But what does that even ****ing mean?
We can add a transgendered week at the end of gay month if that makes you feel better?We have gay history in the schools and gay month in the future do we?
when does the madness stop?
1.) Strange reply for you, I generally get better.
2.) We regulate all kinds of things where subjectivity like this comes into play.
3.) The answer here is easy, a doctor must certify what is medically necessary. Guidelines on what is medically necessary already exist.
4.) This is not bias.
5.) WTF? How on earth could you interpret what I said like this?
6.) We should not be wasting medical schools on non medically necessary majors. there are too few spots that should be used to increase other specialties that will save lives.
7.) Like I said, I was surprised to get a post as rude, taunting and arrogant from you like this. I could very well respond in kind but I won't, I'll consider it a anomaly.
Peace
We have gay history in the schools and gay month in the future do we?
when does the madness stop?
Is gay week teaching people to be gay or does it merely destigmatize gay people and showing them in a positive light, which is likely very offensive to conservatives?
im asking why/how you could possibly know its actually vain.
What is being shoved in your face and how it is being shoved in your face? Is the fact that transgendered people exist as equals to you problematic to you? Is that a problem for you to treat others as you want to be treated? If that is a problem then you have a much deeper problem than just trans people. Life isn't just about you and your wants. You are a member of a very interdependent society of equals and are expected to treat others as you want them to treat you.I am just sick to death of everyone and thing being shoved in my face.

LMAO posting lies won't, no . . you didnt.I answered this. Read my post again.
Your post is hostile, ill-educated and insistent of fallacy.
Go find another, "mark" to harass like this.
Peace
What I think is "just not right" is cosmetic surgery that is for vanity. I can respect folks who undergo reassignment surgery, I cannot respect folks who undergo vanity cosmetic surgery.
We should not be wasting medical schools on non medically necessary majors. there are too few spots that should be used to increase other specialties that will save lives.
LMAO how is it shoved in your faceI am just sick to death of everyone and thing being shoved in my face.
What is being shoved in your face and how it is being shoved in your face?You are too busy stereotyping to understand. I am fine with trans folks, I'd date a trans women in a heartbeat.
I am not against their rights, they are the same as mine as it should be.
The world is black and white as you have just insisted. I am just sick of all this shit being shoved in my face, as I said.
What is being shoved in your face and how it is being shoved in your face?
Nobody forced you to respond to this thread.
The world is not black and white, and I never said that it was.
What he's saying is you cannot change DNA, your genes, your biology. You are a guy, you cannot become a girl. All the surgery and hormones don't change you.How do you know what they want to be? This isn't as simple as "they all want to be the opposite sex". That is a shallow view of transgendered people. Many are perfectly comfortable simply living and being viewed as the opposite gender as their birth sex, even their current physical sex because in everyday life, we don't show off our genitals to people, and we certainly do not share our DNA profiles.
Second, no one cares if you won't date them. As for supporting a child who is transgender, that is only going to lead to emotional and mental distress of your child, not actually be productive in any way. That shows a flaw in your parenting, a huge flaw for any parent to have.
My post should have read, "the world is NOT black and white." You expressed a black and white view of it by stating that I was a radical right because I was not repeating the far left mantra.
You cannot live in 2021 America and avoid women's this, blacks that, trans this, outreach that...
This and electing a black man President is what got us Trump. If I, as a social liberal am sick of it, then maybe, just maybe, enough is enough.
Do you ask to see their genes, chromosomes, and DNA when you meet someone so you can determine what their gender is? Or do you determine the gender of others by how they dress and act as most people do?What he's saying is you cannot change DNA, your genes, your biology. You are a guy, you cannot become a girl. All the surgery and hormones don't change you.
You oppose equal rights.
