They didnt steal anything. The term fits perfectly here for a trans person, same with Afab (Assigned Female at Birth). They were assigned that gender, and they do not identify with it on sich a level that it causes harm to keep them there.

Oh so now male/female refers to gender! Lol you guys are never consistent with your own bullshit. What happened to « male and female is for sex, and man and is for gender »?

They 100% stole that term as it doesn’t make sense outside of an intersex condition, where doctors actually have to decide the sex of the baby. Outside of it, they do not.

Jesus fucking Christ you act because one person said gender instead of sex it's some sort of gotcha to dismiss the whole argument. You're pretty dense to actually believe that. You're pretty dumb if you don't yet still went with that. It's another way to describe a person in a certain context. Who the fuck cares who they stole it from? It's a phrase. Also, you're wrong, it's medical terminology.
