It's not really that mysterious. But it's made more complicated by the fact that the word gender refers to 3 different things. Gender roles, gender expression, & gender identity are not coterminous, although some equivocate between the 3 because they don't draw clear distinctions

Well, if you believe that being a man or a woman is based purely on psychology and has nothing to do with anatomy, sexuality and reproduction then you can also believe in flat Earth.

I accept the science as it emerges. You can choose to define 'woman' purely by reproductive systems & ignore brains, hormones & genetics if you choose. These are the facts.
-
However, there are also the ethics. Mine are liberal which means I will defend your right to define 'woman' as widely or narrowly as you like and also other people's to disagree with you. You can survive people disagreeing with you or even being wrong.

Sweet Jesus, you obviously aren’t even trying to understand my point.

Mine is different. I am essentially telling you to believe what you want and asking you not to go on about it to people who aren't interested and accept disagreement.
