I don't think so. My daughter recently asked me what the harm was in referring to her as he. None at all - but plenty of harm in validating dysmorphic isssues wholly attributable to society rather than biology. Do you see your nipples and hate yourself, or do you see how society treats a girl and wish you were otherwise? If it's the second thing.....
Can it reinforce that shitty thing in some contexts? Certainly. Does that apply to the majority of people who levy such complaints - unlikely.
