Attributing these behaviors to "male socialization" let's people off the hook for their actions. This person may be weaponizing their masculine presentation to talk over and intimidate people but that's just not doable for trans women. You know who can and does do that? Trans men. I've regularly seen trans men do exactly as you described, but no one would say they're "male socialized". Trans men do that cause they're men and know they can benefit from it. So it's frankly just not an accurate way to describe this behavior AND it's a transmisogynistic dog whistle.
