I’m pretty obviously trans.

That could be enough maybe? Anyone who is perceived as "strange" gets second hand citizenship, even if it's subtle.

Nah it happens even when I keep my mouth shut. Like men just look past you when looking for answers, people in shops will just ask a guy you're with what they want etc. Hell when I worked IT and people only knew my email signature I'd get the "can I get a man/someone more senior/an it specialist to look at this" after I'd give my opinion.
