He does have all the hardware of a male. Sticking with the analogy, the software make him think he's should be a she.

A PC that thinks it's a server is still a PC until you redo the hardware to make it a server.
Nope, the hardware does. Google "transgender brain structures"

Because I believe in something called "reality". You can't mentally be anything you want to be.
But it's not a matter of wanting to be something mentally, they just ARE that. And the reality of the mental is just as real as the reality of the physical.

I didn't realize that birth differences people experience are required to compose themselves to your version of reality.

The fact that people can have female brains in male bodies (and vice versa) seems to be beyond your reality.

Given the variety that nature creates in people's bodies in visible ways, it's really not that hard to realize that differences that are harder to see can exist too. Chromosomal differences, as one example. Differences in brain development as another.

Male brains are found in male skulls and female brains are found in female skulls.

A lot to reply to. The point is to not have men legally able to go where women are in stages of partial undress. It's a concern that any sexual predator will take advantage of such laws to go into said spaces to attack women, spy on them, violate their privacy, install video equipment without detection and so on. I abhor sexual exploitation of women. I would like to prevent it when possible.

So when balancing risk to women vs feelings of trans, I side with not increasing the risk to women. And armoured, the topic of trans bathroom using boils down to that because not all of us live with our heads buried in the sand. If you wish to discuss homosexuality, find the appropriate forum.

PCs can be servers. That's a software function. Hardware doesn't make it a server.

Reading brain patterns is as scientific as reading someone's palms. They don't have a clue how the brain works on the higher level.

Yet you are sure that men can't have a female gender based in their brain.

IF I mentally think I'm superman and jump off a building take a guess which will win.
Do you want a meaningful conversation, or are you going to be willfully obtuse?

No one's talking about mentally being superman, their mentally not their physical gender. fMRIs and other studies show that there's much more going on here than just "wishing".

Further, I'll say that if you truly believe you are Superman, it wouldn't be sinful to act as him.

Are you referring to birth defects? Besides birth defects not only is there difference in the male brain but their skulls as well . The same for females.

Hey you can be whatever you want. But bathrooms were made for what you have between your legs. Be who you are...but use the correct bathroom or a private one.

Bathrooms were made for the expelling of waste. A toilet is the same for both men and women.

I am referring to the fact that not all people are born 100% male or 100% female and this presents itself in a variety of ways.
Physically this is a birth defect. Mentally male and female has a lot to do with culture. For example pink is for girls and blue for boys. Men wears a suit and a lady a dress. This is why God gave Israel laws pertaining to the differences between males and females. Boys are supposed to be trained to be men and girls are supposed to be trained to be ladies. You don't let a child try to raise themselves.

There is more brain difference between age groups than between sexes.
