I want to see if the experience of gender has an effect if explored by a similar study to the submission. For example: Do nonbinary people have the same brain development as the people in this study, or do they diverge from cisgendered people of the same sex?

Until they look at nonbinary and genderless people, we won't know whether sex or experience of gender is more significant in brain development. Even throwing in gender nonconforming people might produce some interesting findings.

"Hard to tackle by science" is not the same as "not scientific." Confounding variables are notoriously hard to control for in social science, but people manage to find useful information when they go in without agendas.

I expressed an interest. That's all. No judgement, claims, or assertions. I picked no nits and made no points. I value scientific exploration for its own sake. I don't need an agenda to wonder what we'd find. I look at the stars for the same reason.

I didn't state any hypotheses or claim gender is easily tackled by science. I expressed an interest.

I wrote a little thing to explain nonbinary: http://blog.mkronline.com/2015/11/nonbinary-gender-explained...

As for safe spaces, it's to address the reality that minority voices tend to go silent when they don't feel safe. Some people in colleges and in political media have a twisted view of this concept, and it's got a lot of people angry.

Nonbinary/agender people existed long before this goofiness on college campuses and in the clickbait farms of political media, and they'll still exist once both pass into history.

I missed the part that covers intellectual differences. Can you point it out?

I want to see a study like this on nonbinary and agender people.
