Just because a small handful of trans people pass, that doesn’t mean that we suddenly can’t tell males from females.

This is the TRA argument I don’t get. Let’s be very generous and say trans people account for 1% of the population and 20% of them pass. So, they’re saying that because 0.2% of the population can pass as the opposite sex while clothed, the whole of humanity can’t tell the difference between sexes? (Personally, I think a more realistic figure would be 0.6% of the population with 5% passing for a grand total of 0.03% of the population passing, but whatever.)

Also, if we can’t differentiate the sexes, what are trans people playing at taking cross-sex hormones and having multiple cosmetic surgeries? Surely they can’t be mimicking the features of the opposite sex because how could you possibly tell the difference?
