Gender references must get really confusing in languages that have gender specific verbs. I really wouldn't want to sort that one out.
But things are a bit daft if gender is simply based on how you identify. How does another person know and does it really, really matter. As long as it polite and respectful and not obviously wrong just take it on the chin and put it down to ignorance.
