However, "misgendering" is not a hate crime. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/preacher-who-misgendered-trans-woman-did-not-break-law-3c8vrg8l8 Misgendering can be seen as the expression of belief in the immutability of biological sex, a belief protected under the Equality Act 2010. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-62061929
