I never understood why you need 'gender confirmation surgery' if you become a woman if you say you are.
Note the change in terminology: sex change => sex reassignment => gender confirmation.
Leftists are happy to argue this one, actually. They consider sex and gender to be different, so a person's body can be male but their mind can be a woman's. Woman =/= female, man =/= male. Woman is gender, female is sex. Changing the sex to conform with the gender is not a contradiction for leftists, it harmonizes gender and sex.
If gender is a social construct, and nothing is inherently male or female, then how does putting on a dress or liking sports make you male or female? I can be a man and wear pigtails. I can be a woman and chew tobacco. Since none of it is determined by sex or gender, how could doing them change your sex or gender?
the answer to that is simple: their definition of man and woman is self-referential. "a woman is anyone who identifies as a woman" etc.
of course, another way to describe a self-referential word is "meaningless".
What does identifying as a woman mean?
