It's really not a leap to suggest that TRA arguments are steeped in racism. These are the people who base their claims on arguments like 'transwomen are women, in the same way that black women are women', which in case the obfuscation of terms means you don't get the force of how racist that is, black women have dealt with being told they look like blokes by racists for a long time, and TRAs basically put them squarely in the same group as males who want to be female.
Is it really a point of dispute that FGM is prevalent in cultures that are not predominantly white western? And yet the TRAs are openly lauding those privileged westerners who have had these gender motivated surgeries performed, and in the case of Mermaids' Susie Green, actively campaigning to lower the age when these interventions are performed.
It would be nice if these things were ridiculous, unthinkable, leaping to wild conclusions, but terrifyingly, it's not. There are actually people, who consider themselves good, arguing against FGM legislation because they want some children to undergo it because of their cultural reasons, even while they say other children shouldn't because those other cultural beliefs are barbaric.
