so I have been looking into how things work for a while, and was wondering what is up with the gender of a brain, I use to think that it was a genetic code that usually matches the physical gender, but sometimes is not, and the brains are different, www.newscientist.com/article/dn20032-transsexual-differences-caught-on-brain-scan.htmlso with physical differences it made sense that it was genetic, or maybe environmental, but then I found this case where identical twins came out with very different gender brains www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2011/12/11/led-child-who-simply-knew/SsH1U9Pn9JKArTiumZdxaL/story.htmlso now I am thinking that the spirit that takes a new body forms lots of the structures and hardware as it develops, or at least it does with the brain and apparently birthmarks are from past life happenings www.infinityinst.com/articles/reincarnation.htmlso it is kind of looking like people with the issue of brain and body gender not matching are having a spiritual issue that has made itself real in the physical world, the current medical industry helps people like that by changing the body surgically to match the brain, if no treatment is offered there is about a 40% suicide rate (could be higher) with people like that www.lauras-playground.com/transgender_mortality.htmso it is a huge problem for them, it is not like it goes away easy... I have been looking for a spiritual solution that even the poor ones can afford, but found nothing so far, any ideas as to what is going on or how to fix it ? also I think that figuring out reality is often a matter of looking at the broken spots, and not the parts that work well, so I hope everyone finds this interesting

My husband and I have wondered about how this works. We are not really the norm as a couple. He doesn't mind cleaning house while I would just as soon leave my socks in the middle of the bedroom floor. Yet I do like being a female. He likes being a man we just have some twists that most couples at least in our experience do not.
I do believe in reincarnation. I am living what I think is making up for some bad Karma in another life. grrr... I must have been an uncaring person. I now take care of my In-laws whom have dementia and Alzheimer's disease. They grate my nerves. I always knew as a child I would marry a man from the NC Mountains. In high school I added that he would be a redhead. Sure enough 25 odd later I find myself married to a redhead from the NC mountains and living in NC. (We have been together as long as well).
Back on subject. I have had dreams of being a man. I know people like to say I have other issues but it isn't like that. I don't know. It was like who I used to be sort of dream. I like who I am now and have no problem being female but I know I could be comfortable otherwise. I have a mate who compliments me too. Maybe I am just lucky. My best friend from my high school years is not so lucky. He is gay. He does not want to be and has extreme angst about it. To this day he struggles with his self identity. I wish I could help him more but he has chosen not to stay in touch with me except on occasion. He is on a self destructive path. I will say that. If not suicide he will die from living extremes.
I wish I had a fix or a catalyst that would help people that are in these situations.
Something to work towards.
Just some of my thoughts.

you are very lucky (or skilled) to be comfortable in your body and to have someone that things are working out with.
people not in a bad place in life often pick a destructive path in order to shorten the time here, it is very sad, I don't know how to fix it either...

Believe me I didn't get here over night. I am clean and sober since July 12 2004. (no not on the streets didn't loose everything just realized where I might could go following the path I was on.) My life has been one heck of a journey. I am lucky to have a spouse that was willing to deal with my weirdness and grow along side me. There is all kinds of misery but of which without we would not always grow and learn. Maybe my friend and many others have come here to learn certain specific things. I like to think of earth as a big school though I am not sure that is what it really is.
It is sad. But is it really? I don't know anymore. My whole outlook on life and everything has been changing daily for years now. It really messed me up for a while. I feel 100% better today. I think we all have to be willing to deal with things to get through them.
Sorry for the rambling it is just for some reason I feel comfortable here.

the tarot cards talk have a symbol for having everything change on you continuously, it is the tower card, and if your foundation of your personality is not on something real, then it is torn down, sounds like that is where you were for a long time, it is where I was, but I am better now, but still not all better. and it forces someone to learn and figure things out quick, so yea, I guess it is a good thing after all, to bad it is so painful

How about if in most of your past lives your were a female, and
this time around you are a male do you think it might
require an adjustment beyond what you
can come to grips with?

I think that is what is going on for me, and if life conditions were not so hard I may have been able to adapt better, I came here in life this time to learn how to stand up for myself and do what I know is right, and I have learned that well, now I am just stuck with what helped me learn, so what to do now ? I can't seem to get use to it at all, it seems like such a silly thing till I try to fix it, it is like something poking me it is not poking me to hard, but it never lets up, not ever, not when I am drunk, not when I am sleeping, no breaks form it at all, and I is starting to get sore from it. (if that is a good analogy) there are others like this, and I don't know what to do or to say to help

When reading translations of ancient manuscripts one needs to be aware
of the fact it's common for translators io inject their own fixed ideas into
play. Often symbolisim is used which is designee to reveal the truth for
those inside the circle, and keep those outside the circle in the dark.
Might be that "something poking me" is simply an innate desire to
move on in your evolution. Was the time the male and female
were originally ONE. The first human being, Adam, was both
male and female. Evolution has seperated us into two sexes,
but the last step in human evolution or spiritual progress is
UNION which is presently knock, knock,
knocking on our doors.

I do not know that defining a sexual gender as male or female is not too confining. It is some definition that is rather exclusive of grey areas. I see the genders as being more like a rainbow and more often than not shades are mixed to form new colours . I do think our brains, hormones etc do fluctuate and change to some degree as well. I had a very close relationship with a man who was very masculine in appearance and had strengths that many would identify as masculine but also had sensitivities and aspects that were very feminine and where he suffered the confusion most was in his sexuality . In most aspects he had adapted well being true to who he was , but he found it very hard to find a partner who was understanding of his particular dichotomy that does not fit the commonplace gender defined roles. I came away with the sense that not everyone needs to be defined , they are themselves and fit in as they are in some niche that is not so simply and strictly defined as either male or female. I don't think one should neccessarily label it that someone different is wired wrong because who is to say someone else is wired right or wrong ?

that is a good point, I am going to think about that for a while.
