+
+when they meet in Berkeley, Mark is like "You lying bastards!" and the first is like "You poor, soul, misled by the BBL lies"
+
+but the real takeaway is that everyone should be more skeptical of why they think they do what they do

+If someone says of me, "Taylor Saotome-Westlake? Oh, he's a _man_, you know what _they're_ like," I would be offended—I mean, I would if I still believed that getting offended ever helps with anything. (It _never helps_.) I'm _not_ like typical men, I _don't like_ typical men, and I don't want to be confused with them.
+
+But if someone says, "Taylor Saotome-Westlake? Oh, he's one of those IQ 130, mid-to-low [Conscientiousness and Agreeableness, high Openness](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Five_personality_traits), left-libertarian autogynephilic American Ashkenazi male computer programmers; you know what _they're_ like," my response is to nod and say, "Yeah, pretty much."

+["I'm a Transgender Woman, and this is What It's Like"](https://www.bustle.com/articles/7727-im-a-transgender-woman-and-this-is-what-its-like):
+
+> How am I not [a "real woman"]? Is it because of my chromosomes? I don’t think that’s fair, as neither you nor I know what my chromosomes even are. Someone who makes this argument assume they're XY, but I don't even know that for certain, as I’ve never had a karyotype test. It’s probably a safe bet that my detractor hasn't had a karyotype test, either. Even if I do have a Y chromosome, that doesn't mean anything. There are a number of women with Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome, sometimes giving them an XY set of chromosomes, which, typically, would be associated with men. Are they not women?
+
+So, I actually have gotten genotyped (by [23andMe](https://www.23andme.com/)). My results came back with a Y chromosome. This was not a surpise.
