Pope Francis wrote:

“Gender ideology is something other than homosexual or transsexual people. Gender ideology makes everyone equal without respect for personal history. I understand the concern about that paragraph in Dignitas Infinita, but it refers not to transgender people but to gender ideology, which nullifies differences. Transgender people must be accepted and integrated into society.”

“Transgender persons do not erase or deny sexual or gender differences. It is precisely because a transgender person knows that there are gender differences that the person realizes that their body does not match their soul.”

This sophistry pretends to affirm sexual/gender distinctions but actually claims that you can swap your physical body to match a plastic, self-discerned psychological disposition, which amounts to a denial that psychological sexual/gender distinctions have a real relationship to physical sexual/gender distinctions. This further denies the real relationship between body and soul which is affirmed in the doctrines of the Trinity and Incarnation.
