Kinda reductive, no? All it takes for a man to be trans is wearing heels?

Boy, imagine when some people find out why heels were invented in the first place

It was for horse riders, who were almost exclusively men across Eurasian cultures

Yes but then we discovered it makes your calves fabulous.

Then men started wearing full trous, and women started wearing high dresses and skirts, where men wore the shorts and women went full length before.

I agree, it's really not great. Gender should be defined by how the person feels and identifies, not by how they dress.
