How trying to define ourselves or others define us by assigned sex at birth doesn’t serve us and is generally oppressive and incorrect, both scientifically and socially.

have always felt it’s weird the way the focus is more on the assigned sex than on the self-identified gender … e.g. if someone is trans and you call them transfem it also communicates they were assigned male at birth (this is required such that being an enby or woman makes them trans).
Focusing on assigned sex can “undo” someone’s gender in a way that calling them a transfem doesn’t, for example.
