Is a lego piano a piano, or is it lego made to resemble a piano? Say you could make it play music, is it lego shaped like a piano that plays music, or is it literally a piano? The latter would require two jumps in logic. You started out with 'lego' & 'resemblance', then you completely got rid of both of these, now the lego no longer exists & neither does any concept of resemblance. Then, in the second jump you materialised a piano where there is none. The lego didn't disappear & the piano didn't appear. Those two things never happened.

If you're wearing camouflage, are you the jungle? Same logic applies to the restructuring of genitalia.

'Phallus' is the umbrella term for clitoris & penis, so just use that to describe trans-men's genitals, no one else is (I'm not talking about post-surgery genitals here).

Who said a man is "something with a penis"? Gonads & gametes are the point of sex differentiation, everything else is secondary. A man sans genitals is a man sans genitals. You're still a biped after losing a leg. You're just a biped who has lost their leg.
