maybe a more concise way to make the point i'm getting at is that the counter argument to "aesthetics are everything" was "but i don't want to do that"

not "i'm not actually capable of doing any of that", which is the reality for a large number of trans people.

The aesthetic world doesn't make a distinction. That's why people on disability, for instance, get told so frequently that they're just too lazy to work or whatever. Essentially the answer to "I'm not capable of doing any of that" is "then the world will shit on you just like it shits on cis women who aren't capable of the same", which I think could have been covered in a more nuanced way but it definitely did come up.

I see where you're coming from because I had the same sort of reaction at first, but ultimately I don't think it would really change the course of the debate that much.
