    Pretty sure you will find they will be correct in 99.9999% of the cases though.

    Very few people are born with a knob and womb.

    Or a fanny n balls.

    You can label yourself with what you want.

    But what you cannot do is try and deny your biological birth sex.

    So the chance of being biologically misgendered is actually pretty much zero.

    But remember we are not talking about people who are clearly biologically male but want to use a female pro noun because they feel they should be female because that is nothing to do with biological misgendering, instead it is to do with people choosing which gender role they wish to follow .. for today anyway.
