>>12666974
Yes, he was in a gender clinic. I don't see how that changes anything. Specially when it was at said gender clinic that he was given a psychiatric evaluation (as all trans are) and they concluded that he may not have gender dysphoria in the usual sense (the kind that can only be alleviated by transitioning) but instead suffered from a different condition that could be causing it. Thus, the conclusion of the study is that pimozide may be used to treat cases where the gender dysphoria may be a result of some other condition. Not at all what anon is implying which is that pimozide cures gender dysphoria.

Because there's no evidence to suggest it helps treating gender dysphoria. In the specific case we're discussing, the diagnosis was that the patient didn't suffer from gender dysphoria because his behaviour was more indicative of a monosymptomatic delusion or schizophrenia, both of which pizomide has been effective at treating.

I've only ever heard of intersex individuals producing sperm, eggs, or being infertile. What are these unique gametes?

>> No.12667662

>>12667645
Spermatozoa or Ova. Infertility doesn't mean you produce none of them. If a woman is infertile, it's due to her ova not being able to drop through the fallopian tubes. If a man is infertile, his seminal fluid doesn't have enough spermatozoa to have one reach an ovum. All those "miracles" you hear about infertile people procreating? That's due to poor instruments to measure infertility. And a misunderstood definition of what infertility means.

>> No.12667697

>>12667645
See here on germ cells.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germ_cell
Infertile people still produce the germ cell (gamete) commensurate with their biological sex, but due to [process X], it either never reaches the correct area, or doesn't mature into the sperm or egg cells. Even in a situation like CAIS, the individual still has testes that have not developed, which produce germ cells which are programmed to mature into sperm cells, but due to insensitivity to testosterone, they don't mature to sperm. It'd be like saying a human who, for some reason, never undergoes puberty (either artificially or naturally) is not an adult once they hit [Y age].

Then stop suggesting the use of pizomide as treatment for gender dysphoria until you can provide evidence of its efficacy.
>the claim is "transition is the most effective", so why wouldnt this have been done already?
Because there are ethical concerns regarding treatment refusal and any study would be tainted since you can't lie to people about what they have between their legs. What we have is evidence showing improvements in quality of life after transitioning but you've decided a priori to ignore all of those because they don't conform to your bias. There's also several studies regarding the factors that predict an individual regretting the surgery because, contrary to what you believe, they do check before chopping someone's dick off.

Sex is somewhat spectrum based. Let me explain.

You have an initial embryo which is female because all embryos start this way. Then the sex differentiation pathway kicks in and cells with y-chromosomes produce factors that are able to induce the embryo into being a male. Now this is where things start getting tricky. Sex differentiation is a complex array of responses mediated by creating specific concentrations of receptors and hormones.

So let's say we have a factor x which in males is at concentration A and induces a male function of muscle tissue with receptors b. Due to any number of factors that concentration could differ either in factor x, or the affinity of b through mutations, meaning the muscle cells don't act like a typical males and are instead female like. Now extrapolate this to every bodily system and you can see how complex this gets with different systems having complex factors governing how close a person is to a female or male sex. This isn't even getting into microchimerism which is actually present in way more of the population then we'd expect.

In a more macroscopic view this is why we have guys that are female framed and girls that get mustaches.

Now this doesn't mean there aren't some binary aspects such as sperm and eggs although intersex is a thing, but sex is about primary and secondary sexual characteristics.

So while the image op used is satirical the concept is actually sound on a larger biological basis.

Those freaks of nature are still either male or female. There is not a single human on record who failed to produce either sperm cells or egg cells. XXXX, XYY, XXY, XXYY, you name the abomination, and the abomination has unique gametes which lets us determine its sex. The reason we know individuals with CAIS are males is because they have testes which produce sperm. In principle, we could extract these sperm cells (similar to extracting egg cells from females) and inseminate a female.

All sex means, biologically, is a human's reproductive role. Whether your fallopian tubes block your ova, or if you have defective testes that prevent sperm from entering the seminal fluid, you're still a male or female due to your gametes.

All embryos start as female and take while to start developing maleness. A female embryo does not have a shift from that pre-male selection state. Therefore the starting state is female as it merely requires blocking this shift to make an XY to develop as a female and not the addition of extra factors.

Sex differentiation of gametes is one part of how sex presents in a body, it's the primary sexual characteristic. But if a person is infertile and produces no gametes they still have a sex yes? Well it's just the karyotype then right? But what about xx males? Those are just a difference in signalling though which you don't seem to think is important for sex determination.

There are physical differences throughout a body that align with being male or female though. Hair patterning, muscle types, organ dynamics, hormone production, antibody production, neural architecture, etc. These are dependent on hormone signalling, receptors, and tissue construction during fetal development. Someone can have a receptor mutation in their neural cells that mean they respond weakly to make hormones and therefore those cells are more likely to develop closer to what a female physiology would dictate.

I've literally never taken a psych or gender studies class in my life. I took grad courses on stem cell biology and cell signalling in my PhD coursework on biophysics and biochemistry as well as a mess of them in undergrad. So I can say with some confidence that I know what I'm talking about compared to literal parroted talking points about how "sex=gametes". You ignored the thesis that someone can have cells that act like how a "normal female" should despite being XY with testes. Which is funny because you accuse unscientific thought yet presented only a semantically motivated argument more suited for a political talk show.

There are a lot of forms of infertility. There can be dysfunction in germ cell production on the first step. There can mutations that just completely stop the formation of genitals such as gonadal genesis. Is that child suddenly without a sex? No. They clearly are sexed male and will develop as such, especially if given hormones to compensate for the ones lost due to a lack of testes.

Regardless your point lacks weight. Germ cells are a part of physical sex, we have primary and secondary sexual characteristics with direct impact on what our cells do and how they respond to different stimulus. Sex differentiation doesn't just stop at the genitals, there is a lot going on there.

If you have high TDF then you become male. If you have low you become female. All embryos start with low TDF. If you block TDF pathways then what should have been a male embryo will develop as female. This is literally introductory biology.

Gonadal agenesis. There are people born without 80% of their brains as you should be well aware, a person entirely missing their genitals isn't that wild.

You are the one theorizing about gender here. I'm listing basic biological facts on how signalling and sex differentiation occurs in the body. Pretending males and females are only different at the genital level is naive, there are a large number of physical differences throughout pretty much every system.

That image is only valid once sex determination occurs. Prior to that, during embryogenesis, the embryo has no gender.
>Gonadal agenesis.
Gonadal DYSGENESIS doesn't matter. Here's a suggestion. Try looking into the tests used to determine they have no gametes. They're the same limitations of all tests that determine infertility, and are baffled at how "infertile" people can mysteriously procreate. They're there.

But I'll humor you, since I prefer steelmanning over strawmanning. Even if there were individuals incapable of producing gametes, that's irrelevant as sex determination is one's capacity to produce such gametes. As such, a sex only exists after the sex determination occurs in fetal development. suggesting that embryos don't have a sex.
>I'm listing basic biological facts on how signalling and sex differentiation occurs in the body.

Male development paths are a deviation from a female developmental path. You can make a male develop as a female by blocking a factor but you would need to induce a large number of different factors to make a female develop as a male. Just like how people are naturally language deficient but then through the addition of education and exposure develop language skills. The native state is without language, the intervention creates a new state.

Dys is a dysfunction in generation, the prefix of a- implies a complete lack. There is literally no gonadal structures. Here are a couple different things to browse through for you.

You are literally making a semantical argument based on the idea that "sex only exists as a function of capacity to make gametes". Which agenesis individuals are incapable of, they do not have the capacity to make gametes. We could extract cells from them and make gametes, but we can do that with anyone and you run into the karyotyping problem of sex determination. So either those people don't have a sex and embryos pre-determination do not have sex or your definition is inherently flawed.

Sexual development takes >10 years to complete for most people. There are a variety of processes going on this whole time and that's what I've been referencing this entire time, I'm sorry if you have trouble picking up on that. I just assumed mentioning hair growth patterns would have given that away as embryos don't grow full beards.

Conflating words makes things more difficult. My entire point is that sex determination doesn't just stop affecting the body differentially after TDF pathways are initiated. A body can have mutations in receptors and hormonal metabolic pathways that result in responses that would normally be male occuring in a female or vice versa. Such as a woman having her skin cells respond to her hormones as though she were a male giving her a beard. This would be a case where a woman has male secondary sexual character in a very obvious way. Hence she would have more male sex character than a woman who doesn't grow a full beard. And yes, it is probably heavily coded for in genetic information. Although I'd be remiss to aknowledge the possibility of different enviormental toxins changing stuff.

Quite literally a red herring as that isn't central to my point on sex being expressed as a spectrum of effects through the body. Although looking through recent literature they found in 2017 that embryos produce factors to ensure proper growth of female tracts implying it is a more active process than was thought for the half century beforehand from genetic factor analysis. Although I know you weren't referencing that but your own inconsistent definition of sex.

Or maybe cell signalling pathways just work in ways that you don't understand and conflict with your worldview? The cell is a highly stochastic system that relies on noisy solutions to DE's in order to compute outcomes with signalling circuits. In the case of the biological differences between men and women, which are many fold, this fact remains true.

Perhaps you can try refuting the central thesis that there is differential expression of male and female phenotypes throughout a bodies tissues instead of taking potshots on nitpicks unrelated to that central point?

She hypothesized something that matched current data and continued to do so until the identification of X factors linked to female differentiation were identified in 2017. The reason that took so long being that you need to rip apart the x chromosome to find the pieces that make things happen and doing that without killing a cell outright is hard.

Regardless you refuse to engage with the original point instead favoring the attack of something irrelevant focused on the source of a hypothesis instead of its justifiability. Otherwise you would have found the 2017 paper before me. The original point of course being that sex determination is a complex set of events that span an entire body and give different responses based on native genomic information that do not correspond to clear male/female dichotomies as a majority of genital based identification methods do.

With sex being the biological definition and not the layman's of course.
