"Gender is real / a fact" or more commonly "biology is real / a fact" is bizarrely a very common strawman among TERFs - the ones saying gender quite obviously don't even know what gender is, and the ones say biology... huh? Trans folk are most certainly aware of their biology, it just doesn't assign our gender: how we outwardly wish to present ourselves. Like yeah Chappelle, a trans woman who opted for SRS is well aware of the surgery they endured, you're not pointing out something new here.

It's incredibly frustrating when people blatantly lie and claim that simple fact is what the transes are mad about - most notably in reference to JKR... when no, what she did is use this dumb strawman while also arguing against our healthcare (HRT, literally the basic treatment of transitioning) and supporting the right for bigots to misgender and deadname us (to which JK Rowling in turn downplayed the issue of Maya Forstater's case to be "stating that sex is real"... again no, that wasn't it).
