Am actually glad withano gave that answer as I can kind of understand now where people are coming from when they say that now. Usually the answer given is 'anyone who identifies as a woman' which is clearly a nonsensical definition as its circular.

As for male brains and female brains...jury is out. Brains tend to be mosaic and they actually change based on life experiences. For example a taxi driver can be identified as a taxi driver based on brain scans. I know sex dysphoria shows on brain scans though, same as anorexia can be identified on brain scans.
but at its fundamental level, its still biology, as it is biology and chemistry that dictate the operation of the brain. You receive a particular stimuli and your body's biology shapes its reaction to that stimuli across the extent of your body including your brain.
