I understand that people who talk about gender dysphoria often use “gender identity” to explain its existence.

What I’m saying is we have no evidence that gender identity as “a deeply felt sense of being male or female” exists. (Unless we’re counting self-report as evidence, in which case there’s also evidence for ESP.)

I’m also saying that this particular definition of the term “gender identity” is recent.
