3. Do people have "gender identities"? Some will tell you they do, some will tell you they don't. I don't even know what it means. I do know that different people think it means different things.

I know what sex I am, because I've looked inside my pants. Similarly, I know what my face looks like and recognise it because I've seen myself in a mirror, photos etc. Would I otherwise? Doubt it.

What about looking at your reflection in water? I know it's distorted, but I bet that's what people did back in the day. They'd find a really still pool.

Upon reflection, people likely did that.
