You absolutely can NOT harp on trans activists for being anti science if you think it’s sexist to point out the evidence that exists about possible genetic or developmental contributing factors to an individuals social behaviors, sexuality, and conformance to gender roles.
There are very good reasons why there would be selective evolutionary pressure on females to have superior communication skills.

There is evidence that we select for superior communication based on female socialization. Enough to explain the difference. There may be a small innate difference between boys and girls, but I don't see why it matters, when socialization is such a huge factor.

Except that socialization and culture (of course they matter!) didn't appear in a vacuum--or on a blank slate, if you prefer. We are primates, and like our cousins, evolution exerted selective pressure on us, as on all animals, from the beginning.
