That's not "scientific fact". For something to be scientific fact it has to have scientific facts supporting it.
From that article:
"self representation" is how you feel. It's a feeling. That's not scientific fact. Going "we acknowledge that society now treats gender as a new thing separate to sex" isn't the same as it being a scientifically proven fact.
I’m really not seeing the logic here, so called "feelings" are scientific facts and we do studies on them all the time. Is hunger not a feeling? Same thing with self-representation. Those aren’t nebulous concepts. Those are well-established scientific facts. Gender is an important part of self-representation and from all indications, one people have very little control over.
So why are there people changing their "gender identity" multiple times a day?
Show me a scientific study that has found any existence whatsoever of "gender identity" through science. The very article linked here says it's a social construct. Social constructs are not "scientific facts".
