Even people who are pretty ok with how one lives their lives are going to do a double-take because we're ingrained to automatically deduce as much info as we can as soon as we can do it; when something that -up until maybe a decade or so - was very reliable way to figure out gender proves to not be what the person identifies with it kind of throws folks off balance.

None of this is a problem in acting because in 99% of the cases the character is not trans and people can correctly deduce the gender by body type, with some notable exceptions I guess
yeah but people have been transgender since at least when humans existed, if not since other animals have existed; it just wasn't common knowledge until recently probably
