@pyoor@lgbtqia.space to build off what you're saying here, there really isn't a meaningful or consistent difference between male and female skeletons, because humans aren't that dimorphic—which is why coroners and archeologists constantly get it wrong and make unsound decisions based on their cultural assumptions that don't apply to the underlying biology people are just people; everyone is a unique combination of endless universal variables, that we then arbitrarily and inconsistently label this or that and average out to decide what made-up category to put them in. we are all the same, and we are all individually different i only started hrt after 41-1/2 years, yes you read that correctly, and hey turns out that decision was the precise medical intervention my body needed for it to stop screaming at me in pain and discomfort in the ways it has been for 30 frickin years. and it worked just fine and so many of my medical problems that i never understood were not normal for a healthy person vanished more or less immediately—once i received necessary care to support the individual needs of my body. like any number of interventions we think nothing of (psychiatric meds, for one thing), it's just an endocrine problem; sometimes our bodies don't produce the hormones we need in the amounts we need to be healthy and for all our systems to function correctly. and when our bodies get the resources they need to build themselves back up healthy, it doesn't matter if the materials are locally sourced or imported; it's all bioidentical, all "tastes" the same. so they just get right on with it, following the new instructions same as they followed the old, while they keep on rebuilding themselves cell-by-cell biologically, we can change our tack at any time—because we are continually remaking ourselves from brass tacks every moment that we are alive. nothing about us is fixed, all variation is individual, and all our hardware is compatible regardless of what assumptions we use when we name them. so it's just as arbitrary when we swap out one set of instructions for another; our bodies just keep doing what they can't help but do, and given enough time eventually every cell in our bodies will have been replaced the way they're supposed to be—just, following a slightly different blueprint than they had been
