You have a right to non-interference with your private life, for instance. You do not have the right to not have your disgust reflex triggered, nor do you have the right to not be sad.

Human rights law does not operate at the level of 'I don't like this/her/you.' It operates on the level of serious violations of life, health, autonomy, and personal integrity. That's why transphobes are so absolutely desperate to elevate every interaction with a trans person to litigable heights.

It's because 'this violated my right to privacy' is a justiciable claim, whereas 'yuck' is not. It should be the job of the courts and skilled lawyers to pull this apart, but apparently these days that is not happening.
