trans-womxyn's bodies, minds, experiences fall within the range of variability exhibited by men, but not women

No. They don’t. My mind is nothing like a man’s. My body is certainly nothing like a man’s. You can reasonably argue we aren’t women but it ignores basically the whole of society to say we are men.

If a man had been in an accident that left him looking & behaving differently from most people, would that mean he was no longer a man? Seems like cherry picking. Why do the differences point to "not man"? It could just as easily be regarded as a different sexual orientation, for instance, since transgender people are different from both gay & straight people.

A man cannot become a trans woman, you are one or not.

And it makes no sense as a sexual orientation because we still have sexual orientations. Some of us are gay by your definitions, some of us are gay by ours, some of us are bi, some of us are ace. It makes no sense to treat it as a sexual orientation.
