which biological reality? that in the gonads that you probably can't see, or that in the brain development that you definitely can't see? that a person has been misgendered since birth because of their mismatched gonads doesn't justify keeping on misgendering them.

and don't get me started on religion. lots of harm have been brought onto humankind by hateful behaviors (pseudo)justified by religion, but religious freedom is also a human right that is also often disregarded, and such beliefs can go pretty deep in a person's identity. hurting them purposefully is also unkind, even if you disagree with them.
