CONSERVATIVE COMMENTARY
The work of Professor Rippon suggests there is no clear difference between male and female brains and a paper by Mohammad Reza Mohammadi and Ali Khaleghi claims that:
[T]ransgender individuals experience change in lifestyle, context of beliefs and concepts and, as a result, their culture and behaviors. Given the close relationship and interaction between culture, behavior and brain, the individual’s brain adapts itself to the new condition (culture) and concepts and starts to alter its function and structure.
