Will we ever be able to gender swap?

I often think about how Humans are made up of XX & XY Chromosomes.

What are the challenges of changing the second letter from X->Y->X? Could CRISPR be the answer?

will be able to change a persons insides like giving people working wombs so they could give birth natually? or give working sperm to FtM people?

  • no that is imposible , like the sex chromosomes are already part of every part of your body, all the chromosomes for that matter are mixed togheter, for example if you have a XY combination all your body/organs will be bigger than if you had xx, so the Y chromosome is in all of ones body. that is why for example a woman has rounder body and shorter body. you are completly fused to both sets of chromosomes you inherit

  • Maybe during the fertilization.

    Otherwise you would need to replace all the X and Y Chromosomes in every single cell of the body, which is almost impossible.

    • And even if you do swap, it may not have any effect, since all the sex specific organs have already been formed.

    • do u think there could be a way to change sex specific organs on an adult like some fish do

    • No, not really. You could maybe surgically remove them and replace them with lab grown ones. The problem is there is a time really early on when the body develops either into male or female and after that there is only a second stage during puberty when the body matures. Thats why i said, you need to do something really early to have any change on the sex. Otherwise hormones are really effective in changing the body, but even they can't change the sexual organs, but only affect secondary or tertiary bodyfeatures, like voice tone, body hair, ...

  • Not possible. CRISPR cannot change entire chromosomes throughout an organism. Not could it alter previous sex-linked physical development.

    • so how would u go about doing a full sex change inside and out

    • it would require magic. Or a brain transplant.

    • or body swapping lol

  • No.

    Genes are genes and "trans" are just mentally ill/insecure, people being taken advantage of by psychologists and surgeons for their own tenure and pockets.

    • you sound transphobic

  • Why is that so important to you?

    • well i think it would be cool is all

  • Maybe men can be double-jointed.
    That way we can suck our own cock and won’t need women. lol

  • Let's hope not

  • Not in the foreseeable future.

  • Why would we waste any money on something that is a mental illness and not a real thing?

    • you sound transphobic

    • I am not. I feel bad for people that have gender dysphoria. How do we treat anorexics (body dysmorphia) who think that they are too fat but are within the normal range? Do we give them surgery? No we try to help them psychologically be ok with their body How do we treat men who think that they don't have enough muscle (body dysmorphia) but are within the average range? Do we prescribe them steroids? No we try to help them psychologically be ok with their body
