Well, exactly, these are differences on average. You can't look at a brain & say this one belongs to a man, this one a woman. We're not there yet. There is no brain possessed by a woman that would rule her out as being correctly identified as a woman.
Yes, but on average. I read a couple of studies a while ago now. IIRC, the arrow of causality hasn't been established. In other words, it's not clear whether brain makeup is driving the dysphoria or whether it's the other way around (i.e., brain changes because dysphoria).

I'd have to read more of the science to have a worthwhile view about this matter. If it turns out there is a "trans brain" (shorthand, obv.), then that's an interesting result. But orthogonal to the issues surrounding trans activism (which I'm not sure we disagree about anyway).
