About transgender people in Faerun. Magic is not a mundane tool for everybody.
Faerun is not a homogeneous thing. But in certain places of Faerun magic seems mundane like electricity in real life. Netheril is the most iconic example. Thay too. Making a analogy is like the "gender" controversy on cyberpunk 2077. Technology is so high on cyberpunk that except by extremely poor people, gender is irrelevant. On "high technological" or "high magical" settings, everything that we understand about gender would change completely.
I get that some people prefer low magic settings, but D&D is not a low magic game... Of course, you can try adapt it to a low magic setting by banning certain classes, a lot of spells and houseruling a lot of things to make magic more rare, risky and expensive, but you got the idea.
