To add a bit more nuance to this, denying trans people their gender gives them no need to justify theirs in their eyes. They consider their ASAB to give themselves inherent traits. It's a form of gatekeeping. People are affraid of their ASAB not meaning much in the end. This is also why TERFs are bioessentialist. They want to gatekeep the experience of womanhood to people who were AFAB. It might be because of insecurity, but it can also be just a powertrip for them (which goes hand by hand, but not always)
