Can you imagine putting yourself in another person's shoes like a mature and objective human being?

I also find it strange. However, such a person (P1) does not see themself (himself, herself) as binary male or female. If I wish to communicate with P1, I would try to see things from their point of view and accept their pronoun. Otherwise, communication is impossible.
