“Female” is a descriptor of sex (element of anatomy), not gender identity (element of consciousness). Considering that:
the whole foundation of the notion of being trans relies on sex and gender being two distinct things
generally speaking, the fundamental definition of being “trans” is for there to be a disparity between one’s sex and one’s gender identity
It’s not transphobic to use a sex adjective to refer to homologous body parts that are naturally inherent to that sex, it’s just matter-of-fact. For example, only males/females are capable of suffering from prostate/ovarian cancer–and this population includes trans women/men.

Just like “theory” is a rigorously tested hypothesis. We’re not all professional biologists and doctors, it’s different colloquially.
Strange then that my documents all say “female”
