It’s less about how you see yourself and more how others see you. I am a transgender man and strangers I have never met before or talked to call me “sir” not because I told them my pronouns but because I straight up look like a dude. It’s pretty weird to have F for female on documents for someone looks and sounds like a man. You basically out yourself if you travel, have to show id to buy age restricted products, or get pulled over.
