Relevant and accurate. I’m none of these things.
Well, there is a statistical association between being born with a penis and being physically strong, although obviously it doesn’t apply to everyone. The power tool things is just a total invention of society though.
yeah comparing that to astrology is a bit much. i get it, you can’t know for sure what gender a person is going to be, but it’s still likely to coincide with their sex, mostly through societal factors anyway.
That’s not a comparison, it’s an equation. A comparison identifies a difference. An equation asserts similarity.
i think everyone should enjoy power tools, both penised and non-penised individuals.
All identity is a societal invention. That’s the purpose of identity, it’s for other people’s perspectives and what they think. It’s irrelevant otherwise, because what else needs to identify your gender? A dog? A stone? The clouds? And why gender of all things?
I’m a man. Apart from the basics, like a penis, I couldn’t really tell you what “feeling like a man” actually is. Everything beyond the biological category is just made up stereotypes and don’t serve any actual purpose. But for some people, they live by societal stereotypes, so if they don’t like them, they will change their identity to fit into new ones. It’s not at all necessary, but that’s the power of worrying how others see you and why identities exist.
But at the end of the day, we’re all just brains animating a corpse. So go wear a dress! They’re comfy! More “men” should; they’re missing out.

Which is why I don’t understand people who need to change themselves physically to conform to society’s expectations.
They have been told all their lives “you are expected to behave this way! The way you want to behave is only acceptable for them!” It’s not really that surprising.
If we could purge the sexist tropes from society that would probably do wonders for gender dysphoria.
