The difference between the male and female brain is practically zerowomen have a thicker corpus callosum (the join between the hemispheres), and people extrapolate from this 'women are better at multitasking', but there is no evidence of this or any other functional difference. There is of course a cultural difference between male and female brains, i.e. you can be brought up as a boy or a girl, but that's just shit we make up for ourselves during our lifetime. So I think Vagabond is basically right, except that I am on principle opposed to accepting anything at all ever and I look to a future where we all grow tentacles.

Wasn't say there was a physical difference just there are regions of a females brains that are difference developed to that of a malesI'm talking about brian chemisty - Oestrogen affects these regions of the Brain in the same way that Testosterone (SP?) affects other regions of the brain

If you're talking about early development, that's a physical differenceIf you're suggesting that men who want gender realignment have naturally high levels of estrogen, well, we could test for that, so I assume they don't. And I think females have more because of ovaries, not sure how much of it is made in the brain.
You got testosterone right. Which makes me wonder about "Brian chemistry".

No I was talking about levels of Oestrogen that was present in the Mother during pregnancyand there are tests that have proven this to be the case but this can only be decided post-mortem - so what kill all transexuals cut open their brain "Oops sorry this one was actually transgendered and not under a dillusion!"
