Scientists have uncovered 20 genes linked to being transgender – supporting claims that the condition has a physical basis.
Researchers believe the gene variations may contribute to people identifying with the opposite sex.
Critics of transgender identity say the condition is ‘all in the mind’, and transgender people have a psychological problem rather than a medical one. But by highlighting genetic mutations that affect brain development, the latest findings point towards transgender identity having a physical basis.

Maybe science can cure it.
“So its a physiological defect that leads to psychological problems”
Some transgenderism is biological so you’d expect DNA to reflect that.
There was Gene/Jean from Quark.
Why isn’t this work being done on diseases that kill or disable people?
If taxpayer money is being spent on this, I am not comfortable with this amount of attention and money going to something that affects a minuscule part of the population.
..........and “Scientists” studying Cancer are employed for Life studying.....................you guessed it.........................Cancer!
This is all about Conning Uncle Sam to grant a few billion dollars to study queers.
Meanwhile, my best friend died last Saturday morning of Cancer. The tens of billions paid “scientists” over recent decades did not help John one wit !
“One can bet the farm that this is junk science.”.....
ANYONE can apply for federal grant funds to study ANYTHING.
The subject study of the article proves it. “Waste of funds” personified!
And there was David Bowie’s “Jean Genie”.
‘The DNA test involved people in treatment at transgender clinics.’
if there is no trans gene marker, neither the population, nor its location, should matter at all...
Genes in eukaryotes undergo various rearrangements to enhance genetic variability.
Mistakes happen.
Some mistakes make people evil, others, just different.
If you have achieved any sizable accumulations of years, you have almost certainly met a child that was evil from birth and others, the wrong gender from birth.
One deserves harsh treatment, the other does not.
Don’t believe it for a second.
There was a big to-do about the “gay gene” until multiple cases of identical twins were studied.
The abused twin grew up to be homosexual, and the properly nurtured and raised twin grew up to be normal and happy.
Bring on the transgender identical twins studies!
The Gene Hunt theme song.
Scientists have uncovered 20 genes linked to being transgender – and they’re FABULOUS!!!
;)
Laverne Cox, the transgender actor has an identical twin brother who isn’t transgender.
They're off to a good start by making this pronouncement based on a 30 person study. Pure unabashed statistical malpractice.
When “scientists” show that these transgender genes actually and naturally change the person from one sex to the other including the formation of sex organs then I’ll believe the genes actually exist.
I suspect you are right! There is the 'X' chromosone and the 'Y' chromosome if either of those are missing you have a 'neuter' all else as you say, is junk science.
Yahtzee!
Skinny Genes?
