Looks pretty complete to me. And well laid out too.

Thanks! Since posting I was thinking about adding:

• Felt gender is undetectable, indefinable & inconsequential

in third to last place, but don't know if that's overkill, since the current third to last place sort of covers it:

• Distinguishing between the sexes is justified, distinguishing between transgender-males who identify as women & transgender-males who identify as men is not, because differences in ideological beliefs are not material differences.

Also, in pursuit of using the most accurate terminology I have found that the term 'natal gender' exists & is more commonly used than 'socialised gender', so I'm considering amending the conspectus accordingly.

The point about it being undetecable and inconsequential is very important. It is just a claim one makes, and even if they further claim some dysphoria as the cause: so what? A mental illness does not make something not real suddenly more real.

How about this, to really hit home the point:

• Felt gender is undetectable, indefinable & inconsequential, in some cases there isn’t even a superficial difference between transgender-males & men

A mental illness does not make something not real suddenly more real

You're forgetting:

• Being transgender is not a disorder, has no symptoms & doesn't require medical treatment, according to every culture throughout history outside the modern day West

Starting in 2022 "gender dysphoria" will cease to exist as a mental disorder. It'll be re-categorised as a "sexual condition" (like homosexuality) called 'gender incongruence', meaning there will be no basis to pathologise it anymore, not even in the West. Do you think I ought to mention that in the conspectus?

I don't know if all that should be mentioned because simply mentioning it leaves the many statements included in it open to petty attacks or leaves it open to assume that "something" exists in all this gender nonsense.

That it is undetectable, indefinable & inconsequential I think is a strong point you make. It amounts to nothing more than a claim.

But the claim is not made in a vacuum, it is made in a way that demands we change language, freedom of speech, and history. Women's health must be made obscure or overly verbose so as to include women who might be so stupid that they think because they claim to be a man they could have taken Ambien in the same way a man should take it, or that they might not realize their reproductive health concerns are those of women and not men.

I'm still sickened by the woman who was raped by her room mate and one of the things she said about it is that he knew she identified as a man as if that matters to a guy raping a woman. Her sense of identity did not matter at all.

The attack is on language and freedom of speech and on history. The idea that women bring all voters into the world, apparently a slogan used by suffragettes, makes no sense in a gender-drunk world. That women were forced into being only reproductive vessels too keep the labor pool flooded and keep labor cheap makes no sense in a gender-drunk world and pulls the rug out of a major underpinning of actual-left ideology. And it does this at the expense of the detectable (as in with one's hands groping) and definable (as in Adult human female) and consequential (as rape or Ambien or every other aspect of sexed medical differences), in favor of the indetectable and indefinable and inconsequential. Even when they claim pain over misgendering, it is a claim and can never be more than a claim unlike rape.
