(NB-this is NOT serious...if it were I would cry right now)
There are 23 chromosomes in a human. In those chromosomes there are 20,000-25,000 genes. We all know that the "Y" chromosome has less genes than the "X" so we already know that males are short some genetic material. But the randomness of all the other genes is what makes us all different.
I know I was born without certain "genes". I don't have the gene that requires I stick a fork in a light socket just to see what will happen. I don't have the gene that makes going and drowning worms fun. I don't have the gene that can tell an alternator from the starter. In my case (and this is total honesty) I never had the gene to procreate. In sports I am a reactive person, not a proactive person (I am a better goalie than forward. I am a better corner back than a wide receiver).
Maybe I was born with certain genes others don't have also. We all know that being TG is genetic...right?? OK that is a "given" here but not proven.
I have an active imagination and I lean toward arts and music (even though I am in a science field...I think being an artist helps balance what I do.)
OK two questions. What genes do you think you were born with (without) that the middle of the bell curve has (or doesn't).
And how much of what (who) you are is genetic (and not just the TG part...the whole)?
Wouldn't it be fascinating if the TG gene was part of the "X" gene and is only expressed when a gene on the "Y" is suppressed or inactive?
Oh I guess I don't have the gene for counting either...that is three questions
