Was just casually checking out some videos from this voice coach lady... when suddenly I find out she's trans too! Kinda makes me feel inspired, with progress like that.

That’s a very different statement from ‘they are genetically this gender/sex’.

You're right, and it wasn't what I intended even though that's how it came across as. And you're right that I am assuming things about their life, but given the information I or the rest of us have that's kind of the only option available to a degree, and then learn from people commenting in reply to me when I attempt to start a discussion. Are assumptions not allowed at all here? If so that should be outlined in the rules clearer. And thank you for the thorough explanation,

It's not explicitly not allowed but you'll find it's a lot easier to come off as nice if you don't assume things.
