Sex is defined as the phenotypes that produce either sperm or eggs. Those with genetic disorders like XXY or whose chromosomes mismatch their body (like XX males or XY females) develop either the phenotype that produces sperm or the phenotype that produces eggs. Thus, they are either male or female. Trans individuals also develop either of these two phenotypes, and are thus, either male or female.

It is true there is no single set of features in the brains of males or in the brains of females. There are plenty of similarities, and there are also plenty of differences, forming average distributions. Sex is not defined by one’s brain, so it cannot be used to argue that sex is binary or a spectrum. And brain differences cannot be used to argue that trans people are the sex they claim to be.
