This. It's not real, and deep down they know it. I'd usually agree and say, "As long as it's not harming anyone," but it IS harming people. It's problematic when there are people fighting for their right to be able to declare that they were born in the wrong body (male into female and female into male) without having people come along and make a mockery of their identity by claiming "omg I was supposed to be a Sunflower, what about ME?!!?"
It's just rude, selfish and they need to check themselves. Either that or get some professional help which there is NO SHAME in doing.
