The human brain is a complicated and wonderful thing. But do the brains of trans and cis people differ? Is there neural component to being transgender? Luckily Gender Rebels host Kath is a neuroscience expert and ready to tackle these and other questions at the cutting edge of science.
For more on this topic: Check out Robert Sapolsky 2011 Stanford lecture on YouTube (Jump in at 1 hr 25 min for all the transie stuff, but the whole video is really interesting). Big thanks to Dorian Michélle Vrenden of the Beyond Gender podcast for sharing this with us!!
For those who love peer-reviewed literature, check out The Transsexual Brain – A review of findings on the neural basis of transsexualism (Smith et al, 2015).
