Right so all it really boils down to is that this person internalized the socially constructed stereotypes and may not even realize it? Because if the brain is being told one thing i.e that a man's brain is telling him he's female, it's going to have to default to the socially constructed stereotypes of women which is tied to femininity otherwise why even bring it up?

I can't speak for that person, what they internalized or what they realize. If we were talking about what they internalize, then we'd be talking about what they say of themselves. I have no interest in what they say of themselves.

Similarly I can't speak of what the realize, either about themselves or their arguments. They could know they are peddling BS-- I suspect they know they are peddling BS on some level but that's just a suspicion. I suspect that because I don't know why they initially set up the two meanings of gender-- the social construct and the shorthand for identity.

Then they personify the brain, which I run pretty far with but I think you have to if we accept their notion. How can a brain expect a different body unless there is some way the brain is created separate from the way the body is created? I think this means that what they are calling "the brain" is what we'd call socialization. That's a major problem.

I'm glad I have no day-to-day dealings with any of these people (knock on wood)
