The Neuroscience of Being Transgender

A few years old but again explains how there is neurological evidence that transgender people have the same brain scans as the gender they identify as.  Even more the video explain how gender is a social construct with examples of how stereotypical female / male differs between cultures.  Great short video that is both informative and easy to follow / understand.   Hugs

In this episode, I discuss the neuroscience of being transgender by explaining the difference between gender identity and biology. I add studies from neuroscience and explain some fascinating findings.
