> Evidence shows that it is not as inherent and built-in from birth as many people think, but is better characterised as a self-belief that can change over time.
I have a lot of evidence in front of me that shows the opposite. What are you reading to lead you to the opposite conclusion?
> Detransitioners are probably the best-known example.
Transgenderism is incredibly rare in populations: .1% to .6% of the population. Of that, detransitioners are also incredibly rare: about 1%, and it's not clear yet what percentage of those stop taking puberty blockers or hormones because of financial reasons. Doesn't exactly make the case...
> As well as that, there are the "gender-fluid" people whose identity fluctuates rapidly rather than being fixed.
Correct, because gender is indeed a spectrum. Again that just seems to be making my case for me...
