Next semester my friend.

I don't really disagree with you guys. I was just playing devils advocate and quoting something that says gender is determined by the genes that specify our sexual morphology.

Well ofc it's genes
But where do you think those idiosyncratic genes are located? The diff chromosomes!
Also taking 300 level genetics course next semester. I'll enjoy it, but I already understand most of what I'll learn there lol. That's the problem with my cell/molecular bio class now.. Makes it boring D:

No, I was being a derp and was trying to get at the point that it's the genes that specify our morphology, but what if our morphology changes.

Way too much studying with midterms and just trying to find any reason to come here to avoid studying :lol:

Also, you coursera too much hehe

Actually its epigenetic info that has the strongest influence on morphology

Geeeez, picky niggas. Ok, say genes where I said chromosomes. Like it really changes anything :lol:

In the end, you're still what you are. Saying you're no longer a man because you look like a woman is like saying you no longer have cancer because you look healthy... Yeah, ok. But you still have cancer.

If you feel like a woman, turned everything on your body into females caracteristics, nothin wrong in saying she's now a woman.

all yall are wrong, the argument that some will make is that sex is defined by the genitalia that you're born with (as described on your x and or y chromosomes) and your gender is the sex that you identify with. tayrawr for example was born as one of the male sex but identifies as one of the female gender and has now realigned her sexual characteristics with those of the female sex
