When you dye your hair blonde, you become - a blonde. When someone tells you "you have beautiful blonde hair" you don't correct them and insist that it's actually a mousy brown. You thank them for appreciating this thing about you that YOU know that you changed. You don't feel obligated to tell THEM that you changed it.

When someone tells you that your blue eyes are exquisite, you don't correct them and tell them they're actually a brownish hazel. You thank them. Because you are under no obligation to tell them that you are intentionally representing yourself as someone with blue eyes, even though you aren't blue-eyed.

All these things about yourself that you can change, because you feel more "at home" in your own body when you make those changes. And hopefully no one makes fun of you, or thinks less of you, or hates you, or fears you, or avoids you, or tells everyone how horrible you are, just because you made a change about your body that gave you a good feeling about yourself.
There are two genders this can be positively determined by genetic tests, this is a fact, facts do not hate ,love or care about politics, pop culture nonsense, one's genetic makeup cannot be changed, a person's sexuality is a profound, pervasive part of us and comes from a very basic component of our being embedded in us at a molecular level.If someone is conflicted , confused about who they are it can certainly be a very bad situation for them and no one should add to their problems, but pretending that this is not a maladjustment, that a person's feeling are paramount to facts is to deny reality , try balancing your checkbook with feelings. Making cosmetic changes to one self do not change the facts just appearance
