Indeed. It's probably beneficial for you to assume good faith, but I'm content to assume bad faith when someone who purports to be covering an issue in which some level of understanding of gender identity and trans issues would seem to be a requirement uses a non-phrase like "woman-identifying man". Bad faith may be the wrong word; willful ignorance supported by being comfortable-enconced in heinous, privileged views? Or perhaps I'm just contrarian — if you'd assumed bad faith, my response could well have been some attempt at apology :) "Woman-identifying man" just blows my mind, though.
