>>48721060>That cringy imageTrans women can be women and gender is real but not because of your shitty strawman, the categories man and woman are based on certain signifiers that trigger pattern recognition in the brain such as a beard = man and high voice = woman.
There are biological males who because of intersex conditions like AIS end up looking like females at birth, they can go on and their entire lives without knowing that they have XY chromosomes and testicles where their ovaries should be.
They consider themselves women and are legally such even though they are not female, which implies a distinction between what a woman is and sex.
MtFs who transition at an early age are essentially going through artificial AIS and depending and depending on how they pass can live their lives as women without anybody being aware of their sex.
There's no definition of a woman that includes someone like Emily Quinn but rejects Caroline Cossey.
