Not that the edge case matters in the least.
When it comes to any suffering involved in gender, the illusory nature of gender is as irrelevant as the illusory nature of a great many anxieties, phobias, and vectors of depressive thought. One can reject the insistence of cultural conformity and still be negatively affected -by- it. Case in point, that simple rejection is a palpable -cause- of gender related misery in the first place....... even among gender conformists. So, hilariously, is conformity.
This petty shit is bad for errybody. It's the reason that..when a guys heart gets all a-flutter at the notion of people self identifying..if I call him a pussy..everyone knows what that means, and it will hurt his demonstrably fragile feelers. Obviously, gender is an illusion. The lady is swinging richard. Terrified of non conformity, and terrified that the browns or the womenfolks might be getting something...because that would ruin 'Murica!
Sigh, this fucking thread......
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies.

Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Some people self identify as a reincarnated/reborn Jesus.
This isn't that big a stretch.
As long as he harms no one, let him live his life.

I don't particularly care what they do, but it is nutty as fuck.

Quote:46, XX INTERSEX
The person has the chromosomes of a woman, the ovaries of a woman, but external (outside) genitals that appear male. This most often is the result of a female fetus having been exposed to excess male hormones before birth.
You didn't copy and paste the very next sentence:
Quote:The labia ("lips" or folds of skin of the external female genitals) fuse, and the clitoris enlarges to appear like a penis.
Intersex genitalia is by no means normal male genitalia.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

Are we doing the thing where we go out on the internet to find something to be upset about and throw shade on some group by association?

While there may be some justification in believing that some people with male genitals have female brain structures*, I cannot think of any way to justify the notion that people can be whatever race they want to be, other than recognizing 'race' as the social construct that it actually is. Do liberal/progressive types think this kind of post-modern approach to identity is valid?
*The notion that there is a specifically female brain seems like a can of worms for feminism.
Doesn't bother me. You could identify as a sexy pink Martian for all I care. I'm not the one to decide your identity.

This is what happens when people seek to choose what they want to be rather than submit, be at peace, and accept to what they are meant to be.

You make it sound like that's a bad thing. I'd rather that than submit unwillingly to some BS standard that has no respect for my autonomy.

Well this is what soul searching is about. Find out who you really are, instead of letting other people tell you who you are. People who break the mold shouldn't be vilified, because there isn't really a mold when it comes to Human nature. We're far too complex to fit into general types. It is in our nature to seek independence, and make our personal mark in the world. We are a social species that does best in groups, but we are also individuals. We are not sheep, to be led by a shepherd through life. We forge our own lives.
