Really Rosie?
So the only difference between men and women are genitals, nothing else on a physiological level?
I think you are confusing our minds as being something that only contains our personality, memory and inteligence and nothing else.
I'm different from men in many ways and I'm not ashamed of that, it doesn't make me "less than" I am still "equal too"
The difference is not "just" genitals, or brains, or any other single organ, It is that every cell in the millions (?billions, trillions?) in the body has a nucleus which contains an instruction book of "How to make and operate a human body" This is all encoded in the chromosomes, on the spirasl of DNA. One pair of chromosomes are either both the X type, the other are one X and one Y. If you have two Xs, the instructions say "This will be a female human", if they are one X, one Y, they say "This will be a male human"
These are the basic definitions which control the carrying out of the finer details in the DNA that influence the development of the sexual organs, production of hormones and, by their effect, of eggs or sperm, plus all the secondary sexual differences that are evident - the greater average height and strength of males, their facial hair, deeper voice, wider shoulders and narrower hips, different skull shape and eye sockets, different pelvic shape, and so on.
If an unidentified skeleton of a man is discovered, without the living reactions which would reveal its sex, nor the sexual organs or the brain, the mere shape of the bones can help identify him as male, and if DNA can be recovered, that clinches it. He may have lived as a woman, but he was designed as a man.
