Oh god not this again.
If I woke up in a man's body, I would be a man.
Given I've been treated like a woman for the last 4 and half decades it would take some adjusting to.
But I would be a man. https://twitter.com/MakiN47550299/status/1348214438621450244

Like, how many times are they going to wheel out this impossible Kafkaesque scenario to try and trick up into revealing that actually we do think there is magic inner gender essence.
Listen my friends, every time I take one of those bullshit tests that
Listen my friends, every time I take one of those bullshit tests that
measures your personality and gender codes it, I come out well over 50% 'masculine.' If I believed your nonsense essentialising gender-soul religion I would identify as non-binary. Being a man isn't a massive reach for me. In fact, having my personality in this world would have
gone WAY easier in this world *if I were a man.*
Which is one of the reasons I'm a fucking feminist.
Because what needs to be changed is the idea that there is something wrong with 'masculinity' in women and 'femininity' in men.
And you are doing the opposite of that.

This is why you end up with nonsense defintions lof gender identity like one given by ONS I came across 'a social contruct that is an internal sense of self.'
The internal sense of self is just your *personality.* The idea that certain personality traits are only *proper* to
The internal sense of self is just your *personality.* The idea that certain personality traits are only *proper* to
one sex or another is part of *gender.*
You don't have inner gender essence. You have a personality that is then socially coded as either proper or improper to your sex.
And that coding is *part of the mechanism of gender and the oppression of female people.*

It's bullshit.
Stop essentialising or reifying it. Stop saying that someone's personality is what determines their sex.
A person with exactly my personality in a male body would be a man, and a person with my personality in a female body would be, um, me.
