I love this question because I have started comparing “gender identity” to ESP. A small minority of people claim they have a “gender identity.” There’s no objective evidence that “gender identity” exists as a quality inherent in people. Most people would say there’s no such thing as “gender identity.” Some other people believe it exists but say that they themselves don’t have one.

And yet we’re making all kinds of social and educational policy based on the assumption that “gender identity” is real.

Makes no more sense than making policy on the assumption that ESP is real.
