I agree chromosomes and gender but I was getting at some women for example have high levels of testosterone and some guys have high levels of oestrogen which can affect the body and make someone look/feel more manly or feminine.

I don't really see what the point of refusing that would be.
That's the thing. If someone asks or has a reason to, fair enough.

On the minuscule chance you ever got a pronoun wrong, someone would correct you and you get it right from there onwards. No need for workplaces to make a huge thing over it and and request they be used in correspondence.
