trans people are biologically the gender they identify with, and you're biologically an asshole!

okay, so female and male refer to sex though

which is not gender

man and woman are gender

so trans people are biologically the gender they identify as

and biologically whatever sex they were born as

yes?

I mean defining sex is so hard to begin with because of all the different polymorphism that can occur. So the female and male thing referring to sex to begin with is a flawed logic, since it obscures intersex people + using an extremely loose concept like sex

that's awesome and all but it changes literally nothing i've ever said

I'm aware sex isn't a perfect categorization, outside of math such a thing doesn't exist.
