As I said before, I think the use of the word "gender" has made things more confusing as everyone uses it to mean different things. And I think transactivists have took full advantage of the confusion between sex and gender. I admit, though, good part of my dislike for the word comes from the fact that its usage in my natal tongue feels like a cultural imposition.

Oh for sure. The way they're retroactively redefining sex-based things as gender-based is so sneaky. If they were honest about wanting to changed things to be gender-based, that'd be fair game. But claiming things were always gender-based is just deceitful.
