The sex of a postoperative transsexual should be analogous to a legal fiction. This legal fiction would apply to some things (e.g., sex designation on a driver’s license) but not to others (entering a sports competition as one’s adopted sex)
I don’t know that I agree with all of it. I don’t think there should be any indulgence of “legal fictions,” such as the sex on one’s driver’s license. Nor do I think that surgical intervention should be allowed, even if there are some cases of gender dysphoria where that seems to be the only “effective treatment.”
I’ve had “gender dysphoria” all my life. I live with it. Until there’s no such thing as misogyny, I don’t think it can be cured or treated with surgical disfigurement.

Exactly this. If deviation from expected gender roles makes one transgender, then there are probably only a handful of people on Earth who aren’t on the so-called transgender ‘spectrum’.
Isn’t that something, though.
Here’s the Thread Reader, if anyone’s interested in reading the whole thing (only point one was deleted by Twitter.)

Research that disagrees with the latest woke fad: bad. Abuse up to and including death threats in defense of said woke fad: good.
Good job twitter and ‘progressive’ trans activists.
Those six point are a very concise dose of good sense.

These legal fictions should not be permitted.
