      Why would I do that though? I've repeatedly said that reference to these things - e.g whether your hair is dyed or not / whether you're male or not - are context dependent. It doesn't follow that therefore there is no distinction nor that it could never matter This is so simple

      It's the patina "unconvincing change" and "the truth of DNA". Your need to make the distinction What if that trans woman is literally XX, and you're wrong about the direction she is taking relative to her biological, DNA "truth". Is the distinction relevant anymore?

      What the hell are you talking about? An XX woman is not a TW. I see you're still unable to grasp to point that the difference matters only in certain contexts. Do you think I spend my time trying to 'out' TW? I'm no more likely to do that than go dyed blonde spotting

      An XX woman CAN BE a TW -that's the issue with "biological truth" -it's not binary, and it's murky https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XX_male_syndrome … If not even the most basic assumption, XX=phenotypically female, is not always true, how can anyone insist sex is immutable from DNA?

      You cannot argue generalities from things that, if they apply at all, apply to a tiny fraction of 1%.

      If you have an exception to your 1s and 0s, you no longer have a binary, by default, and you cannot make binary rules for it, by default. Saying xx = phenotypically female is binary, and it's wrong. You can only say xx ≈ phenotypically female. And some TW will be xx.

      You have - ONCE AGAIN - conflated intersex and trans. Intersex orgs and people keep asking you not to, but you don't seem to care.

      I have *not* conflated intersex people with trans people. I said that there are intersex people who are trans. That is a fact. Pretending trans intersex people don't exist, cuz it messes up your DNA=truth hypothesis, helps nobody -especially not intersex people.

      I'm saying that intersex people's situation is distinctly different to trans people in general, and shouldn't be appropriated. HT for XX male syndrome at puberty, for e.g., is not the same as HT for a TM. It is a response to an underlying biological condition. Do better

      Aaaand here's the whole point of the challenge to the idea of biological essentialism "Person A gets to have HRT to change their body in ways that make them happier and function better because their body is actually wrong Person B doesn't because their body is fine"

          And even though they swear up and down this is only about prioritizing "real" problems over "fake" ones it DOES end up also pushing Person A, the intersex person, to get treatment whether they actually want it or not

          The two situations are different. That's what I said, and it's true despite your rant. Once again the language of 'real' versus 'fake' is all yours. It does make me wonder what your views really are, underneath all the screaming rhetoric...
