so are we saying it is legit that some trans people might actually have brains that are different from their biological sex, and so their feeling of their genitals not matching them as a person make sense?!


There exists both the framework for this to be possible, i.e. the fact that men and women have differences in their brains, and a few studies showing that transgender individuals have brains significantly more like those of the opposite sex than the norm. (https://academic.oup.com/jcem/article/85/5/2034/2660626/Male-to-Female-Transsexuals-Have-Female-Neuron for example). Although I feel like the need to prove the "legitimacy" of transgender individuals is more than a bit strange when you consider how unlikely it is that someone would want to become the opposite sex permanently just to be able to enter the women's bathroom or any of the other incredibly dumb rationales people suggest for it.
