I find it curious how people are so willing to uncritically accept this ill-defined "female brain in a male body" idea without thinking it through sufficiently to be able to explain it.

If you mean what you say, then please define it in a way that holds up to logical and empirical scrutiny.

> Self-identity isn't a political position

It is when policy is changed to prioritize self-identity over material reality.

The outcomes of such policy are often harmful, for example: https://4w.pub/male-inmate-charged-with-raping-woman-inside-...

It's more common than you may think - see https://www.shewon.org

> The idea of a female's brain in a male's body isn't that far fetched.

How could it possibly be a female brain if it's part of a male body?

The problem isn't the people, it's the policy.

e.g. https://4w.pub/male-inmate-charged-with-raping-woman-inside-...

The only reason this could happen is because of policy that prioritizes self-declared "gender identity" over sex, and over women's dignity and safety. That's the actual problem, not people just quietly living their lives.
