I feel like you picked a bad example; I imagine it sucks to be referred to as "he" when you're not a "he".

It does. But I wouldn't go and change someone else's speech to say something other than what they said, rather than just telling them politely, because it also sucks to have one's words twisted. In fact, to have it twisted while attached to your name (which is what happened here) is worse than being referred to by someone, in their words, in the wrong gender.
