Obligatory reminder that since gender is not innate, studies of male/female brain differences are as likely to be showing the cumulative effect of years of social differences on neurochemistry, as they are to show biological differences between the sexes.

Also, this particular study was done in rats, not humans. So without further research, we don't know whether it applies to humans at all.

Well, if you're transgender (male mind in a female body or, female mind inside a male body) then this drug may or may not affect you differently, because the study did not test a transgender mice.

HOWEVER, if you have a male mind inside a male body, then this drug will not affect you.

And if you have a female mind inside a female body, then this drug WILL affect you.

Meaning, there is a difference, biologically, between male and female.

Transgender is left up to debate at this point because this study does not deal with it.

[outside the edit window] Thank you for pointing out that the study was done on rats, I must have glossed over that in my reading. Carry on.

I agree.

> While the study was done in rats,

Do lab rats get different treatment?
