His theories were correct, at least anything connected to what he got from studying neoplatonism. His scientific theories were most certainly bonkers, but that's the least interesting part of his writings.
Male and female are two metaphysical archetypes and most human beings fall between those two poles, to different degrees. The problem with SJWs is that they don't understand that there IS such a thing as a masculine and feminine, but those two ideals exist in an absolute state only at the "formal" level, in the Platonic sense, which SJWs can't perceive due to their inability to grasp metaphysical concepts and principles. They do not perceive the metaphysical reality of masculinity and femininity, they just see that some people are more feminine than others and vice versa and they reason that sex is relative and gender is a construct.
Yes, an obviously gay man whose only notable act is killing himself in Beethoven's home. A man who didn't have a problem with women. Imagining some kind of absolute Man and Woman (as Ideas in the Platonic sense, a thing even Aristotle disagrees with) that confirm his, and by extension your, biases and claiming it metaphysical and thus true is bonkers.
