Everything We Know About Season 3 of EUPHORIA So Far [HBO]  (Feb. 20)

The troon in the cast is all over the news for being upset that Trump made her
have an M under 'Sex' on her passport. To be fair Hunter Shafer is one of the
very few male troons that 100% looks, acts, and seems female. Until someone
pointed out that 'she' is a dude, I never would have known. If you're a troon
in that rarefied category-- Blaire White and Nicole Maines (who played Dreamer
on SUPERGIRL) are two other of these rare unicorns-- I can understand why you
might be upset at having to put "male" on your ID. For all the others, it
shouldn't be an issue because you're not fooling anyone.

 To me it seemed easy enough. If you've got something dangling between
your legs then you are still a male, regardless of what you intend for
the future.

It's more fundamental than that - if you have XY chromosomes, you're a male. You can't change the fundamental nature of cells, no matter what all else you do.
