it seems like the directive of whether or not to conflate physical "sex" with the concept of "gender" is constantly contradicted. At one moment, male parts doesn't make you a man, but in same convo its used as a reason for a parts change.
With regard to the "feeling-like" side of gender, it seems a lot more rational that these are simply stereotypes of males/females that people buy into which causes them to think they're the opposite of their physical parts.
Like, if you aren't a female, how can you possibly claim to presume what you feel inside is womanhood. You probably just relate to stereotypes of women and can't relate to stereotypes of men. Or is it something else? What are you going off of?
Meanwhile with race, unlike a penis, you could easily make a case that the whole thing is made up to begin with, or cite some ancient blood lines and pair it with a challenge over how many drops make a race.
