I personally don't create trans sims very often, but when I do, I'll usually pick the gender they were assigned as at birth, and then change their physical frames and their clothing preferences in order to fit whichever gender they identify with now. The problem is, the UI will constantly misgender them, and it's very jarring to look at.
I do it exactly the other way around. When I create a trans woman, for example, I make her a female sim so the game uses the correct labels and pronouns, change her physical frame to male, but work on it to make it as feminine-looking as possible, and depending on how far into her transition she is, she may still be able to impregnate others, or be completely infertile. With trans men, it's the other way around.
So in a way, the game does already let you choose pronouns (at least male and female ones) by setting the basic gender of the sim, and then you can work with the custom gender options to adjust the rest as you see fit. Though I admit that it can be very difficult to make a masculine-frame face look convincingly feminine, and even more difficult to make a feminine-frame face look masculine.
