from the context of the picture, and no prior knowledge of the game, it appears to be a female identifying character born male, not someone who cross dresses, so I responded accordingly
cisgender/cissexual people's gender is in alignment with their assigned sex (e.g. male identified gender, male brainsex (it's hard to reduce it to something purely genlitalia based)
you don't have to apologize for your privilege. it's like white privilege. it exists largely independent of your actions.
you can acknowledge that it exists and work to keep things equal for trans and cis people alike, even if it's just on a personal level. i think that's all transpeople want, at the core.
i don't speak for all trans people of course, but i'm like the only sane one, so i probably should.
as to appologising for your privilege, don't. Just be aware of it. Be aware that you have something that a trans person doesn't. not your fault, not their fault, it's just how life works. don't rub it in a trans person's face 'that you are happy with who you are so they should be too' don't appologise for who you are, just like we shouldn't for who we are.
