The essence of personal identity is the mind. Shouldn’t we talk about people’s identity rather than their sex or gender? Not what people “identify as” but what their true identity is. People’s true identity is not their outward appearance but what the mind involuntarily dictates.
Which is of course NOT what I said. I said KEEP changing their minds - that is the criticism, that people can dip in and out at will. That will not be possible. Making a terrible and genuine mistake is possible.
