Please tell me you actually know nobody trans thinks surgeries—or ANYTHING involving the medical community—defines your gender? Tell me you’re just being ignorant for the RTs. Please.

yea afaik you're completely wrong on that part. your sex is biologically distinct based on your physical characteristics. granted there is intersex and hermaphroditism but that's referred to as disorders of sexual developement and is very rare in human cases
Who has the authority to define “sex” that way? I’m defining it based on the experiences of trans people (which I believe bc who would go through all that hate for nothing?) and bc the examples you gave make a “medical” definition hard. What’s the basis for your definition?

The two things you can’t control used to be the sex you were born and the color of your skin. And yet some how y’all have found a way

but no i can go outside and tan and change my skin color and also what about michael jackson he changed his skin color??

i'm gonna go ahead and say that your chromosomes have that authority to define sex that way. you know xx and xy. your genes the things that make you what you are. You cannot define something based off personal experience that's just an opinion
-
But you just pointed out that chromosomes DON’T define your sex. there are PLENTY of ppl with chromosome/gender combos that don’t fit your expectations. Gender is veeeeeeery biologically precarious. Idk why we can’t accept that it is similarly precarious in the brain.
