How bizarre, what psychology? Gender critical feminism, which is essentially radical feminism, is a movement that states that women's oppression is rooted in our actual or perceived reproductive capacity (biology.) The tool used to oppress women is gender. Gendered stereotypes, specifically those deemed feminine, are treated as inferior to masculine stereotypes.

Being critical of the socially constructed idea of gender (not sex,) pre-dates the explosion in numbers of trans people by decades. All radical feminists would describe themselves as accepting and encouraging of people defying gendered norms. In fact, many GC feminists are gender non-conforming themselves/

We do recognize that it is impossible to change sex and that a man can never become a woman. Furthermore, we recognize that we cannot "identify" out of our oppression by calling ourselves men or adopting masculine gender stereotypes and that it is highly offensive for our oppressor (men) to think they can identify into an oppressed class of people (women) and claim spaces and rights we fought very hard for and only recently won as their own.

Whoever, developed this survey has no idea what they are talking about.

TRAs and their allies have to believe we're just deluded otherwise they'd have to listen to our arguments. It's a kind of mass projection, because of course they're the ones that are anti-science and willing to believe delusions like men can literally become women.
