Pretty sure Spotify will mess this up regardless of actual gender. I live in Germany but only speak English. Spotify can't work out what language to serve anything to me in.
A trans woman constantly getting ads for dollar shave club, Nivia for men, and Weezer is hugely invalidating simply because some machine learning algorithm says she sounds like a man. Good god imagine having to perform a stereotypical version of your gender identity for your phone just to get the recommendations you want.
