1. Really interesting story.
I was skeptical until I read it. The brain is an amazing thing. I like the new Chris. :-)

2. This convinced you?
Chris sought advice from his neurologist, who said the changes in his personality, ­appearance and sexuality, could all be down to the stroke, opening up a different part of his brain.


There isn't anything else in the story about the brain, just the guy's story.

4. Sounds like he was just looking for a reason to be who he really is.
That is my theory at least, I ain't no doctor.

5. I know someone who is transgender who
I believe became aware of her real gender identity partially as the result of suffering a stroke.

6. I came out after brain surgery
I always knew I was gay, but kept it neatly hidden. after my surgery, there was no ability to hide, so I came out.
having that brain surgery saved me in more ways than one.
