I don't subscribe to the idea that a person has an internal gender I view gender only as social construct that consists of behevioral rules. That which is internal I simply call ''character'' or ''personality'' which does not have a direct parallel to ones sex even though there are tendencies.

I don't believe that one sex is better off in society than the other as a whole, I believe that there are upsides and downsides in how each is treated due to sexism.

I don't subscribe to this idea as I have mentioned earlier I see gender as a social construct, while I view men / women through a lense of biological sex which unlike gender is a biological fact.
