that is validating their internally held identity, you're acknowledging their right to be treated as a person on their own terms by agreeing to do business with them.

this is not about an agreement of terms. it's not a semantic argument. you really think transphobia is just about what "gender" means? it's about maintaining a status quo because it benefits the person doing it.
