Actually likely genetics: Genetics A 2008 study compared 112 male-to-female transsexuals (MtFs), both androphilic and gynephilic, and who were mostly already undergoing hormone treatment, with 258 cisgender male controls. Male-to-female transsexuals were more likely than cisgender males to have a longer version of a receptor gene (longer repetitions of the gene) for the sex hormone androgen, which reduced its effectiveness at binding testosterone.[5] The androgen receptor (NR3C4) is activated by the binding of testosterone or dihydrotestosterone, where it plays a critical role in the forming of primary and secondary male sex characteristics. The research suggests reduced androgen and androgen signaling contributes to the female gender identity of male-to-female transsexuals. The authors say that a decrease in testosterone levels in the brain during development might prevent complete masculinization of the brain in male-to-female transsexuals and thereby cause a more feminized brain and a female gender identity.[5][6] A variant genotype for a gene called CYP17, which acts on the sex hormones pregnenolone and progesterone, has been found to be linked to female-to-male (FtMs) transsexuality but not MtF transsexuality. Most notably, the FtM subjects not only had the variant genotype more frequently, but had an allele distribution equivalent to male controls, unlike the female controls. The paper concluded that the loss of a female-specific CYP17 T -34C allele distribution pattern is associated with FtM transsexuality.[7]

Music Depeche Mode’s Andy Fletcher Dead at 60
DPCyric replied to silentbob's topic in The Performing Arts Centre
I listened to a bunch of Depeche Mode after hearing this news it's terrible I've seen them live Andy was amazing, they are my second favorite band and best live performance I've ever seen. Over 40 years I can't imagine what Dave and Martin are going through -
Television Stranger Things 4 out now

Ugh, really bad timing for that first episode Edit: I would recommend just reading my spoiler and skipping to the theme song. -
I'm the opposite I've grown lest angsty and way more angry the metal I listen to now I wouldn't have 20 years ago.

I also prefer goth, industrial, progressive (corrected power for you) and symphonic metal however every now and then something brutal just hits right for me and when it does it usually sits at the top of my list for the year.

Correct until Ubisoft gets bought by Gearbox and they Duke Nukem Forever it out. -
Yes we have discussed this before that was my jam in that area some of the best bands I seen in that time were Wolfsheim, Funker Voght, The Cruxshadows, KMFDM and Ministry. I've switched moved to Metal and Kpop as my main genres but still love those other ones. Edit: Wasn't familiar with Deathline International but listening to it now and I approve (not my album of the year I think the new The Spirit album gets that).

Well don't @ him

Three Doors Down was absolutely soul sucking bad.

Small percentage of mine as well but one good grief if it wasn't shortly after my divorce and I wasn't just feeling weird about life I would have checked that out some more. Maybe it is the medication but maybe it's just not so much your thing

You clearly didn't get the right escorts

Depeche Mode was easily the best they deserve all the fame they have true performers. Nine Inch Nails with Bauhaus I've seen NIN half a dozen times but you could tell the band was in a particularly good mood at that show.
