Sure he was rude, but from the standpoint of his trade, she is a man. She has no female parts and that's the whole point of his job.

It's like handing an electrician a pipe wrench and saying "the wires are leaking, go tighten them up"

Sure he was rude

You're really just glossing over this.

He called her a man in several different ways. That's transphobic, and has nothing to do with his trade.

It has been pointed out exclusively by you, and you have been incorrect on each occasion.
