Texas Ed Board Approves Bible Curriculum

It's no different than teaching kids about Greek mythology.

So it's true! 😆 😆 😆

Can we call you 'Howlin' Wolf'? That would be SO cool!!

This is why America is in a moral cesspit. You braindead jokers have as the highest law, the law of the land, when your own conscience should tell you that the law of God supercedes that of man. Hence your girls are sluts, and your men are weak and effeminate, and your lives are perverted, materialistic and pointless.

Teaching kids a man can be a woman isn't a fairytale?

Let's see...false premises, false conclusions, nothing but ridiculously unsubstantiated blather...

Nope. I guess I don't have to say anything to this.

Free speech... its protected under the 1st Ammendment. But your hate speech against Christians which I see you have practiced many times is condemned in the 1st Amendment.

Tiresias

The first figure who undergoes a transformation of gender in "Metamorphoses" is Tiresias in Book III. Interestingly the focus of this episode is not Tiresias’s transformation but how his lived experience would allow him to be a suitable judge in a debate.

The section relates how Tiresias was transformed into a woman after striking a pair of snakes and was seven years later transformed back after encountering the snakes again. Thus Zeus and Hera decide he is the perfect judge for their debate on sexual relations, having had experience in both bodies.

Do some research. I’ve already posted about the science.

XX's have XX privileges. XY's have separate but equal privileges.

Science cannot change an XX into an XY or vice versa. When it CAN, then we can talk. 😆

Transgender individuals (TIs) show brain-structural alterations that differ from their biological sex as well as their perceived gender. To substantiate evidence that the brain structure of TIs differs from male and female, we use a combined multivariate and univariate approach. Gray matter segments resulting from voxel-based morphometry preprocessing of N = 1753 cisgender (CG) healthy participants were used to train (N = 1402) and validate (20% holdout N = 351) a support-vector machine classifying the biological sex. As a second validation, we classified N = 1104 patients with depression. A third validation was performed using the matched CG sample of the transgender women (TW) application sample. Subsequently, the classifier was applied to N = 26 TW. Finally, we compared brain volumes of CG-men, women, and TW-pre/post treatment cross-sex hormone treatment (CHT) in a univariate analysis controlling for sexual orientation, age, and total brain volume. The application of our biological sex classifier to the transgender sample resulted in a significantly lower true positive rate (TPR-male = 56.0% ). The TPR did not differ between CG-individuals with (TPR-male = 86.9% ) and without depression (TPR-male = 88.5% ). The univariate analysis of the transgender application-sample revealed that TW-pre/post treatment show brain-structural differences from CG-women and CG-men in the putamen and insula, as well as the whole-brain analysis. Our results support the hypothesis that brain structure in TW differs from brain structure of their biological sex (male) as well as their perceived gender (female). This finding substantiates evidence that TIs show specific brain-structural alterations leading to a different pattern of brain structure than CG-individuals.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies of transgender individuals (particularly transgender women) have reported larger putamen volumes compared with individuals with matching gender identity and assigned sex at birth.
