Gender and sex get deliberately conflated because "sex" means something concrete that excludes people without actual dysphoria while "gender identity" is just a "feeling" that can mean almost anything. They are really trying to make "sex" as a biological category as meaningless as "gender" is (see also saying that sex is a spectrum and a "white supremacist" construct)

Right, which is why I think we need to go based on sex because it is a concrete, observable characteristic, not a mere feeling that cannot be verified.
