The people who assert that there's no difference with trans individuals and none of it's anybody's business would not generally enter into a long-term relationship with somebody who had plumbing that violated their expectations (and possibly could not produce children with them). So it's a somewhat false stance. People are only fully on board with it when it's low stakes.
I don't understand your argument here at all. As a heterosexual male, I don't have a pre-existing policy of entering into long-term relationships with every person that I recognize as a "woman". There are a whole host of factors which would make me choose not to enter into a long-term relationship with a woman (yes, including the general condition of her genitals). It isn't because "she isn't a real woman", its because I'm not attracted to penises (or various other genital characteristics that I might personally find unattractive).
