To me it's like the wording "you're a man who became a woman." It's offensive for many reasons, but I think the biggest reason why it's so offensive is because at the end of the day, you still called me a man. If you were saying that I'm "a woman who used to be a man", it would still be deeply inaccurate, but much less offensive, because, well, at least you're calling me a woman this time around.
Either way, no matter how you say it, this obsession with what I used to be according to you is not only offensive, but it is kinda creepy. I am what I told you that I was.
