They can blame you for not making an effort to read the many articles about trans people and their views.

You may not know any Nobel Prize winners, but there sure are a lot of books about them you could read, which would give an idea of what's going on their heads.

If you refuse to seek out the information that's out there because it's not your preferred means of learning - then, yes, they can blame you for not understanding what's in their heads.

They don't need you to understand them, they need you to accept them. You don't get everything you want just because you ask.
