I don't think I agree. I probably would refer to someone I knew in real life by whatever gender they asked me to mainly to be polite, but I don't know that taking hormones and maybe even having surgery really does change your sex in a way that the state should be obligated to recognize.

This "guy" is one example why. The state where he currently lives recognizes him as a man and he has a uterus and is pregnant. He's not a man by any sane standard, and I'm not sure they rest of us are obligated to play along because he thinks he feels like a man despite actually being biologically a women.
