Yes. It does. It really does. It hits home for me because my second cousin? I think...is transgendered MtoF without the final surgery. Her mother accepted her as she was. We all call her Charlene. We don't insist on calling her by her birth name or refer to the gender she was born. Though, it wasn't always easy. Some of my relatives had more than a bit to say.
