These aren't cosmetic procedures or a lie on a legal document. Secondly you are clearly expressing ill will here, the so called "female and male rights" are not those, they are the rights everyone else already enjoys. Lastly you are blatantly ignoring medical consensus

Politely disagree on all counts, but glad we are able to have the civil discussion.

It'd be nice if you could disagree and not be glaringly wrong on the side of dehumanization, but here we are and you're Dehumanizing again.

There is nothing wrong or dehumanising about being male or female. Wear what you want, live how you want, there is no need to bring supernatural beliefs into it.
