But, just because you made a couple modifications to a 1997 Geo Metro, it doesn't make it a 1968 Dodge Charger. Certainly not a real one.

It is the same concept since our sex is biological. We are born male and female just as cars are made a particular make and model. You can make superficial changes and modifications all you want, but it doesn't alter the truth. A Geo Metro will never be a true Dodge Charger or vice versa.

Gender is far more analogous to the software that the car runs or its interior than the model itself, so your metaphor kinda doesn't work.

If it looks like a duck etc.
If it looked the same and had all the right paperwork then you couldn't tell. See where I'm going with this?

Like, if you collect humans as one does cars, then I guess that could be an argument for not adding a trans woman to your collection of females? That's an image out of a horror movie, though, so...

It does make sense actually. If I change something to be so convincing that it does all the things that the target thing does and is indistinguishable from it, then for all intents and purposes it matches the target thing.

Proliferating lies is the true crime against not just humanity, but basic intelligence.

Just because you fake it, doesn't make it true. It might make it counterfiet or a knock-off, but not true.

If you select your car brands in the same way as you do friends or partners, something is seriously wrong.
I am just saying, no matter what you do, you can't change what you truly are. Same with the cars.
