I disagree, because this leads to "truscum" rhetoric (my "gender" is X so therefore my biological sex is the same as my "gender"). Gender as a word for social constructs is not a TRA thing. Seperating the two is exactly what TRAs DON'T want. They need them to be muddled for their ideology to gain traction; they want people to believe that your "gender" is the same as your sex, ie if you're male but like "girly" things and "behave like a girl", you're actually female.

The way I understand it, its more that they're incoherent in their ideology. they want to use "gender and sex are different!" as a reason why they should be called women or men.(though then the name gender dysphoria makes no sense, if its a social construct?) Once everyone "learned" that they want you to forget sex as a thing, or that its irrelevant. Some are even attacking the idea of sex being real. remembering it is somehow bigoted. Then you have the nonbinary weirdos who totally destroy the whole "trans people are naturally having dysphoria" by making gender a free for all.
