It was your word. Billions have experiences of God. I've never had one. I don't deny the reality & importance of their experience to them. People's gender identity is not their sex. So why would it grant entry to programs, services & sports which are provided based on *sex*

Ok so u believe I have this thing that's not observable, testable or perceivable. And I believe I dont. Like a discussion of whether we have a soul. This is the essence of a belief. I respect yr right to believe I have a gender identity. Do you respect my right to believe I dont?
This theory leads to some strange conclusions. If the only thing that makes someone a woman is their gender identity, but gender identity is not observable in female women there is *nothing* you can learn about the nature of womanhood from studying female people....

So the biological reality which you say defines womanhood (i.e. gender identity), can *only* be studied in those populations where it is observable i.e. transwomen

Alternatively (and occam's razor suggests this pathway). You might conclude from the fact that there is a population of men with strong feelings of wanting to be viewed as women, that this is a real phenomena deserving of study & compassion
