The brain theory is probably even considered transphobic. TRAs insist that gender is purely a social construct based on stereotypes, and any connection to biological sex at all is transphobia.

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!
