Honest question for those who say young kids' behavior is largely the result of socialization: How do you explain the detransitioned butch lesbians who talk about heavy disapproval they faced as tots for their "masculine" behaviors? Who socialized them to be so gender atypical?
Again, how do you get "neat mapping" from the original tweet? Point was, a not-insignificant number of ppl (some being LG) are very gender atypical from a young age (irrespective of social environment), so socialization isn't adequate as a reason. It's no more or less than that.

But the question is posed from a gendered bias. Babies are born with different personalities. The adult world decides what 'gendered' parameters are & which babies/toddlers do not confirm to them.

Personality isn't formed at birth. Clearly it's a combination of nature-nurture. But there's a body of research showing some familial similarities. Most compelling is identical twin studies of twins separated/raised in separate environments.
