There are plenty of men identifying as genderqueer. I also know post-op trans people who in the end decided they really identify as genderqueer, not as the gender they transitioned to.

You're right that there is no "right" way of "doing gender". But there's also no "right" way of doing race, yet you wouldn't insist that a person can't be the race they identify as because they don't "look" like a stereotypical perosn of that race. Because racial divide, just like gender divide, is mostly cultural, not biological.

And if you believe that gender -= biology, then binary transgenderism is bullcrap. No matter how much a person surgically modifies their body, it will NOT change their sex. They are still male or female, just the way they were born, just with an extremely masculine or feminine presentation, including their body presentation. A "transman" is a in reality a woman, who prefers male body physique and social role, a "transwoman" is a man who prefers the opposite. Just liek a cis woman who loses her breasts and uterus to cancer is still biologically a woman.
