So I don't think radfems deny the existence of these group differences as much as see them as inappropriately interpreted and used by men.

Agree. In some instances, though, there is (understandable) refusal to acknowledge info BECAUSE of that misuse. Weakens arguments, IMHO.

I agree that it weakens arguments between intellectuals. Unfortunately so many arguments are women fighting sexists who would see 1/2

acknowledgment of differences on a GROUP level to be some green light to treat individual women differently. It's a hard balance. 2/2

Women get ignored/shut down when arguments become too nurture-essentialist. Just my observation.

I think they are ignored either way. I agree with what you are saying, but in my experience we aren't dealing with honest brokers here.

Apart from winning arguments, seeking truth via weighing evidence is vital to our shared endeavor (speaking out against the current madness)

Not sure how nature-nurture really matters in this fight. At this point we are arguing for the existence of a female body at all.

Trans bullies insist there is a "female brain." Take same data they misuse, emphasize diversity despite typicality (as you said earlier).

They are moving the goal posts. They want us in a messy debate about the "soul" when we should stick to he female body itself.

No matter what they throw at us, a brain in a female body is a female brain. Their dualism is absurd on its face. (Thanks, pomo academics.)

Yes. And if a male brain in a male body shows feminine traits, the males are the bigots for not accepting them.
