Do you object to the “cis people are also weird, gender is weird” bit? Why? It’s always seemed very weird to me that the vast majority of people DO align with gender roles and DO enjoy the sexually dimorphic body they have, even though that body had a 50-50 chance of being the other sex and cultural ideas of gender seem to be pretty randomly assigned (the clothes men and women are supposed to wear change over time, for example). Why aren’t more people unhappy because they are not the other sex? Either there’s something innate that tells you you are a certain sex and makes you want to imitate others of that sex - in which case obviously it can go wrong, hence transgenderism, and that’s a completely neutral thing to happen - or it’s all cultural brainwashing and we might as well let people choose their bodies and gender expression anyway.

Prior to conception there is a 50/50 chance of being a man or a woman, but once a child enters development, being non-gender-conforming is very rare. I think people confuse the little arbitrary cultural details here (eg: girls like pink) for deeply-seated traits which are innate to gender. (eg: women have periods, and can carry children)

My guess is that psychological gender identity is USUALLY linked to biological sex in the majority of people.
