Can someone politely explain to me why it’s wrong to be totally accepting of people have different needs from me, bc they’re different, without letting ANYone define for me what transgender means?

I’M legit confused as to why a binary trans woman would sexualize her penis, while an NB takes HRT.
It is because everyone is different. Gender dysphoria looks different for each person. I was dysphoric about my chest, face, and voice, but not about my bottom bits. Some NB people have dysphoria with certain parts that can be managed with HRT.
I have to preface this with a full acknowledgment of my own bias; I’m an autistic trans woman whose hormones only started working a month ago, and a certified GSRD Coach with no clients. My day job is broke artist.
I don't understand your identity, but I should, and I apologize for failing you.
You aren't failing by not understanding. You don't need to understand everyone. You are doing great just by asking politely and not being rude because you don't understand. It is all about just respecting that person and accepting that who they say they are is who they really are.
The only thing I’d say I won’t accept on principle are dehumanized pronouns like “it/its.”
Furries give me the ick, but I’m willing to set that aside while they’re hacking comms systems and billboards cuz I love counterculture more than I hate not having answers.
Acceptance was never going to be an issue with me. I’d be doing a disservice to my religion (Musician+Whovian) if I couldn’t accept things I don’t understand, especially if they don’t affect me negatively.
