If you point out that you care about sexual orientation, not "gender identity", they screech and throw tantrums about how invalidating you are. I think the real way forward that we're seeing is when the word "transphobia" has its power denied and erased. It is shown to be applied to situations which clearly are not phobia or bigotry towards trans people, and are simply people exercising their own sexual agency and wanting to reasonably say "no" to someone trans without having to risk being ostracized for it.
