I have dealt with the demon and played cards with them all of my life! But now? I'm ready to fold my hand of cards, get up, and just walk away...
What dictates gender anyways????
I personally no longer give a DAMN!
I can FIGHT! I got what it takes! I can make it damn you!
But what happens when a young family members falls victim to gender dysphoria???
How do you deal?
I can easily spit in the eye of society! ->-bleeped-<- YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But I can't train a genuine soft soul to do that you see...
He may be "she"...
It's ->-bleeped-<-ing ironic that I just won the battle, now I have to fight another's battle...
I will die for you son... If that's really what you want, I will save every dime to make YOU who YOU ARE...
I love you son...
P.S. God,->-bleeped-<- you....

All the evidence points to our gender identity being held in the Medialis Frontalis area of the Hypothalamus. In a complex series of chemical interactions the brain is configured as male or female identifying. Ultimately it is a biological state. The evidence for this is growing, and appears irrefutable even now.
How we express it is subject to cultural and social conditioning and restraints however.
