So a lack of testosterone or an excess of it will not influence a childs development and personality? Are you implying that hermaphrodites just happen to come about due to their upbringing and society? Or do cases like these also just happen due to their surroundings?
1stly, you need to distinguish what level you are talking about.
If you are talking about people who just want to dress as a girl clap about for money...I doubt ANY gene on the planet caused that...
Secondly, genetics can TELL you about:
a) Numerical abnormality or b) structural abnormalities...Following are numerical
1) XXY (
Klinefelter syndrome - Klinefelter syndrome - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
also known as
47,XXY or
XXY, is the set of symptoms that result from two or more X chromosome in males. The
primary feature is sterility. Often symptoms may be subtle and many people do not realize they are affected.
Sometimes symptoms are more prominent and may include weaker muscles, greater height, poor coordination, less body hair, smaller genitals, breast growth, and less interest in sex. Often it is only at
puberty that these symptoms are noticed. Intelligence is usually normal; however, reading difficulties and problems with speech are more common.
Symptoms are typically more severe if three or more X chromosomes are present.
Klinefelter syndrome usually occurs randomly. An older mother might increase the risk slightly.
The condition is not inherited from one's parents. The underlying mechanisms involves at least one extra X chromosome in addition to a
Y chromosome such that there is a total of 47 or more
chromosomes rather than usual 46.
[5] KS is diagnosed by the
genetic test known as a
karyotype.
While there is
no cure a number of treatments may help.
Physical therapy,
speech and language therapy,
counselling, and adjustments of teaching methods may be useful.
Testosterone replacement may be used in those who have significantly low levels. Enlarged breasts may be removed by surgery.
About half of males affected with the help of assisted reproductive technology have a chance of having children; however, this is expensive and carries risks. The condition has a nearly normal life expectancy.
2)
XYY syndrome is a genetic condition in which a human male has an extra male (Y) chromosome, giving a total of 47 chromosomes instead of the more usual 46. This produces a
47,XYY karyotype, which occurs every 1 in 1,000 male births.
Testosterone levels (prenatally) are normal in 47,XYY males. Most 47,XYY males have normal sexual development and usually have normal fertility.
XYY syndrome - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
3)
48, XXYY syndrome is a
sex chromosome
4)
Triple X syndrome, also called trisomy X or 47,XXX, is characterized by the presence of an additional X chromosome in each of a female's cells.
Although females with this condition may be taller than average, this chromosomal change typically causes no unusual physical features. Most females with triple X syndrome have normal sexual development and are able to conceive children.
Triple X syndrome is associated with an increased risk of learning disabilities and delayed development of speech and language skills.
Delayed development of motor skills (such as sitting and walking),
weak muscle tone (hypotonia), and
behavioral and emotional difficulties are also possible, but these
characteristics vary widely among affected girls and women. Seizures or kidney abnormalities occur in about 10 percent of affected females.
But know that accompanied with these "mutations" you get
OTHER problems, from breathing to even still birth....It is rare such kids survive...NOW if they have 2 organs of a particular kind,
can can be sterile so they cant "pass their gene" (hence it isnt hereditary)...though some cases are..
Structural problems:
In
cri du chat syndrome (cat's cry syndrome), a rare syndrome,
part of chromosome 5 is missing. An infant with this syndrome may have a
low birth weight; has a small head with many abnormal features, including a round face, small jaw, wide nose, widely separated eyes, crossed eyes (strabismus), and
abnormally shaped ears set low in the head; and often has a high-pitched cry that sounds like a kitten crying. Often the infant
seems limp. The
high-pitched cry is often noted immediately after birth, lasts several weeks, and then disappears.
Webbed fingers and toes (syndactyly) and heart defects are common. Mental and physical development is greatly retarded. Many children with cri du chat syndrome survive to adulthood but
have substantial disabilities.
The 3rd category are those sad cases who have been rejected so often and weak willed people they blame their gender or switch gender for a change or something different....Now these type of people have nothing to do with DNA but are either weak willed or just stupid...
If you can come up with another category you are welcome to explain...
The tests confirmed that Nagina was undergoing sex change and needed surgery that was conducted at a local private hospital, turning her into a young man who was named Usman Akram.
From my understanding this falls under 2nd category .....
And if we take this further
How Male and Female Brains Differ
A recent study by Israeli researchers that examined male and female brains found distinct differences in thedeveloping fetus at just 26 weeks of pregnancy.
You do know you can check the sex of the baby at 7 weeks?
Did you read the article you posted?
I agree that all societies have issues but only strong societies are able to confront them and try to sort them out before things get even worse.
True...Sometimes societies let it happen that is as helpful as ignoring it...
Europe for example has a huge issue with racism. Its covered under blankets and the politically correct mainstream media gives the image that everything is lovely jubbly. However race relations are a ticking time bomb in many European country' and this is something that Europeans have to confront if they want a stable and peaceful future. The majority however will act like their is no problem and hope that nobody notices their hypocrisy.
Yup and we dont see people going Hawwww or even bringing it up as often as they bring up about Pakistan
Similarly in our society there is a huge amount of hypocrisy relating to religion and outward displays of morality.
I totally agree with this part....Esp when it comes from people who dont even know anything about the religion and all their knowledge is from that 1 druggy peer baba or mullah in their masjid rather than referring to the Quran they go to people...
. People are judged left and right on how they dress, how many umrah's/hajj they have done, how many religious mehfils they have organized. We have an overdose of religion where so much that we do is to convince others of our greater piety and religiousness than theirs. Behind doors however so many of these people are engaged in all kinds of degenerate activities and everyone knows about it. I have seen bearded guys getting drunk with my own eyes (even if we wanna talk mainstream then we all know what men like that Ashrafi guy are upto). Yet his beard and his outward display of morality have given him a blank cheque. He can come on tv shows, give lectures on morality and how degenerate our people have become but of course who will say that to him? He's a learned scholar!
That is the problem with our society which we picked up from Hinduism....Pooja everyone who is even a drop better than you when clearly Prophet said only those whose aamal are better than you are closer to Allah nothing to do with knowledge but action...
People think of Pakistanis as a group of people who cant tolerate views different than theirs. If we are honest and as a society look at ourselves in the mirror are they wrong?
Actually I wouldnt paint all 280 million of us with 1 brush....Most of us are tolerant hence we can actually take the ideas of a dirty old peer or Mullah who has no manners on how to deal with women ....I would call that open minded to shit but it is a sad form of open minded and tolerance! I mean the head of the family...usually a man would go to such idiots and actually be "inspired" to do stuff he would never otherwise is showing tolerance and acceptance of something outside their realm...the sad part is that these Mullahs actually make you think you will enter heaven faster by doing shit! Well, Quran warns us about these people who sell their religion for the price of hell...
I have had extensive conversations with Muslims from around the world. Some of my closest friends are Indonesians, Egyptians, Turks.
Well, my closest are Malaysians
but again we are cherry picking do the ones we know and talk to...do they represent whole of their country?
Rest I can agree with
So clearly when there can be sexual transformation in a fairly mature age, there can also be a female brain within a male body or a brain with a more dominant female characteristics. Where is the medical researcher milady?
Oh sorry there was more...read my posts it covers alot ...
The wife who is now looking to be a husband, did she get a checkup at birth? Was she born by a midwife she would have skipped the normal things the hospital does...But at least 1 thing is sure she is sterile as a she....she didnt transform at a "later age" she always was a man but these things can be missed as only way to know chromosomal disorders is through karyotypes...
Where is the medical researcher milady?
I posted it
Your turn to give me some research where a woman who was checked at birth (karyotyped and all) and then SUDDENLY 1 day woke up with a different organ!
It is not about a "homo gene", its about the combination of various factors that creates such cases. You sound like the early Priests and Mullah's who would classify epileptic attacks as an attack by Demons or Djinns.
No I sound like a scientist who just found out people believe in the boogeyman under the bed
As for the idea of hypocrisy, you seem to only wish to defend it on the basis of "the others have it". It is pretty much the same mentality that decides that if everyone else is engaging in bribes, why should I be left out of it. Clearly you seem to think that our messed up society is ok just as it is and therefore because the Indians , Chinese, Swazilandians are also similarly corrupt on a moral scale, it is ok for us to be too.
Now where did I say that?
I was just wondering when you would start crying in the same cries about the other societies...
I in fact explained what it is
This is not hypocrisy but jahalat....The purer/ holier/ superior than thou attitude is obvious in every human being...it manifests from different angles!
