"the idea that gender identity is independent of biological sex is insane" - Jordan Peterson
And he talks about gender being a social construct of roles and little more than a "performance".

So I don't know. But that's what he thinks.
Lol why is it insane. (Rhetorical question. If I have time I'll watch the video later.) I can see them being fully independent just fine... that is, at least certain components of gender identity can be fully independent which is the same result. To me actually the insane idea is to assume that they must always go together since it's not the exact same brain areas that account for each.


Yes, "mismatch" - emotionally, physically, and sexually. It doesn't ever go away, until transition. Actually I wouldn't even say it's even about identity really. That's a misleading term because anyone can "identify" as anything, but it's much more about wanting to be "authentic".
OK so I imagined that right. I can imagine it being very bad, actually. Even without "authenticity" issues


Maybe he mixes up identity with being trans.
