Sorry, I was just agreeing with what you said in your second paragraph. Because it makes complete logical sense what you said there. So the “of course you would” was just a reaffirmation of what you described yourself, not a mandate over what you should feel.

Also, I do experience gender, just the same way as I experience color, taste, pain, happiness and all other experiences. I tried to explain it when I gave the example with “green” before. I experience green… what I don’t know is if “what it feels like” to experience green for me could really be identified with “green” beyond the social understanding I have from my interactions with other people when we see green.
