https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/is-there-something-unique-about-the-transgender-brain/ ends with Overall the weight of these studies and others points strongly toward a biological basis for gender dysphoria. But given the variety of transgender people and the variation in the brains of men and women generally, it will be a long time, if ever, before a doctor can do a brain scan on a child and say, "Yes, this child is trans."

I already had:

"God doesn't make mistakes!"

"No, and God made me trans, so trying to pretend I'm not would be denying God's design."

"You don't know the mind of God."

"Neither do you."

And now I have:

"You can't change biology!"

"Well, biologically it's likely that my being trans is a feature of my brain."

"But there's no definitive test for it."

"Nor to rule it out."
