How clueless could they really be? Very different underwear would be harder to get used to, but both men and women wear T-shirts and pants, and plenty of clothes are unisex.
I tend to find the most confusing thing about Women’s clothing is how much sizing differs between shops/stores. This applies to outer clothing such as t-shirts and jeans, but also sometimes bras.
Granted, it’s usually not too drastic, but personally I can go up or down a size depending on where I shop. Then there are the categories of jeans such as “boyfriend fit”, which from my understanding tend to be slightly baggier, possibly more low-waisted, and with more pockets? But I’m not entirely sure.

Since most of my pants are too long, I would likely fit very well in them if I were male.
I have the opposite problem, with plenty of clothing my size looking ridiculously small on me. That’s why I tend to get “extra-long” when it comes to jeans, also high-waisted tend to be longer so I get those.
Compared to men’s jeans, there are certainly more categories. Then there’s body type; pear, square/rectangle, hourglass etc. I’ve done about marketing for a while now, and I know that advertisers would likely jump at the chance to centre their campaigns around this hypothetical gender switch.

In fact most of mine are unisex and a few are even 'male'. 'Female' clothes tend to have cuts I don't like much.
My shoes (all sneaker types) might be too small though and likely my socks and slippers and gloves.
Personally, Men’s clothing seems simpler to me. Small, Medium, Large, and Extra Large. But for example, in Women’s clothing, you can be an UK size 8 in one shop, and a 12 in another, or an 8 in T-shirts but a 10 in jeans, or a 10 for both T-shirts and jeans, or a 10 in T-shirts and a 12 in jeans without gaining or losing weight.
I have a mixture of unisex, and also more traditionally feminine clothing.
Now, I don’t really know anything about men’s shoes, so if I were to turn into a man then I would probably research more into that.
