That wouldn't fix anything, though. Once the neurological patterns have been set down, that's it, I'm pretty sure they're fixed. I mean, there's nothing wrong with my hormone levels NOW that I know of. I think most trans people don't have more than minimal differences.
Although, if it came down to it, I'd rather be a tranny boy than a girl.
no, just right now if there were hormones that could reverse your want to be a tranny boy. it's just an interesting sort of question in my mind, 'cuz you're naturally biased right now because of your want for it, but if you didn't have the hormones for being trans then you wouldn't... it's a conundrum that i can't really explain.
either way, i can't imagine you as a girl, and i doubt hormones would reverse your neurological pathway things anyway. :)
I know what you mean, really... But there's a part of me that really loathes women sometimes, and has such issues with them, so I STILL think I'd be unhappy. SO I like this, as it gives me at least a certain amount of objectivity.
I can't help but think of those researchers as committing some sort of genocide... like a Hitler in sheepshearer's clothing - purposefully seeking out only homosexual sheep then killing them for study.
Maybe I just need sleep. I can hear the lambs, though. The poor gay lambs. "You still wake up sometimes, don't you Clarice? Wake up in the dark and hear the screaming of the poor gay lambs?"
"Baaaahbra! Baaaahbra... Baaa.. what the hell am I typing, anyway? sheesh. I'm going to bed. :P

Of course, then we have gay trans people; but I don't think chemicals necessarily cause even effects.

Unless you meant in the womb?
