The problem is that without the brain argument these people have no arguments as to why they think they're the opposite sex, except maybe a weird desire to being one.Seriously, i sometimes wonder how this ideology has survived for this long if it seriously has no leg room to stand on.

They think we should conform to sexist stereotypes. They want to fit everyone into social categories for political reasons.

they always circle right back to the vilest stereotypes, like the Smithsonian "Black people can't be expected to have a good vocabulary or show up on time or bathe" poster (good Lord)

it's just like how r/Atheism always sounds more like a Chick tract than Carl Sagan, because they're just not AWARE that "Da Church imposed the death penalty for reading and the proof is nothing was written down!" isn't something even the snake-handlers believe; social hegemony, baby!

On the plus side, if they say the brain argument is faulty, and they say the stereotype argument is faulty, then this person nearly cracked through and told you outright what it always has been: "I have no skills and am a boring human being personality-wise, but Mommy told me I was a special little snowflake and I wanna be SPECIAL TOO!"

Yeah,if there truly was overwhelmingly evidence for the brain argument then TRAs would demand medical staff to use MRA scans to prove whether someone was trans or not.Yet i've seen some legit claim that people should translate regardless.Honestly, i don't think we'll ever find any brain evidence of transgenderism because really there's no inner feeling as to what it is be a man,women or heck even non binary.Which is another reason why i believe the second theory is going to be true.

Transgenderism was such a rare occurrence up until 10 years ago, that society did not pay attention to it. I bet most people over 25 only became aware of this phenomenon because of South Park. Now its everywhere. It survived this long only because it was under the radar, and then censorship came along and made it impossible to criticise the ideology.

It's a psy-op or covert marketing. Or both. Extremely demoralising either way.
