Here's the fundamental thing we're not going to get past - you believe sex and gender are the same thing, I do not, and academia and social sciences agree with me.

Age is a concrete thing. Your age is the same thing as how long you've been in the world, which is why you can't identify as an age that you're not. Species is a concrete thing. Your species is determined by your genetics. Gender and sex have been long considered to not be the same thing, and a quick google search would be indicative of that.

The World Health Organization: "Gender refers to socially constructed roles". The WHO also notes that the "rules" of it vary from culture to culture, which you haven't addressed. No comment on alternative genders in other societies throughout history?

The American Psychological Association: "Gender is cultural".

Medical News Today, Science Direct, the FDA, all of them distinguish between sex and gender along the same lines: sex is biology, gender is cultural.

I am fully confident that you don't care about this and we're never going to see eye to eye on it. That's why I left - it's not worth it to debate with you, because you're not actually interested in learning and you're not interested in empathy.
