Correct. Chromosomes determine sex; self-identity determines gender.

Incorrect. None of this allows you to determine the gender they identify as without asking them.

Incorrect. I said that Ben Shapiro makes good points, which he does from the perspective that sex and gender are synonyms. Those points include pronouns being tied to whether someone is of a male sex or of a female sex, and they also include that no one should be able to force him to use a different pronoun from the perspective of basic human rights. The person sitting beside of him very much proves his point by trying to coerce him into using a different pronoun with threats of violence, which is the point that should be focused on in this discussion instead of most of the things that you're talking about here.

While I do not agree with his perspective that sex and gender are synonyms based on issues of definition, I do agree that using threats of violence to coerce someone into changing their speech is a violation of human rights.
