Toxoplasmosis Gondii, Gender Dysphoria and Mental Health
John Brisson presents a controversial theory linking the parasite Toxoplasmosis gondii to various mental health conditions, including schizophrenia and gender dysphoria. He cites research from India suggesting that parasitic infections can alter human behavior and brain structure, potentially influencing gender identity. The conversation also touches on how T. gondii may have played a role in the domestication of cats to facilitate its transmission to human hosts.
