No, if someone looks like a woman, I'm going to ask their preferred pronouns.
Edit: Alternatively, I'll use language in a way that does not presume gender or lack thereof.

It's actually the only thing that matters.

No, a man is an adult male, and a woman is an adult female. Male and female are determined by chromosomes by definition.

The word you're looking for is intersex, and that does not make them a woman.

I have no business identifying them. That's why I ask, as do anyone else who has a clue.
