While the answer is not definitive, postmortem dissection of the basal strial terminalis during the Zhou study shows there sre structural differences in the brain between males and females. The structure of the brain of MtFs are typical of females. The structure of the one FtM brain of FtMs in the study was typical of males.
These same structures also appear to effect sexuality, but gay males do NOT have females brain structures. Nor do lesbians have male brain structures. In the study, it seemed that the neuron count in that area of the brain in gay men were even more in the masculine direction than in other men, though the difference was not considered to be statistically significant.
