Interesting case.

Hmm I reckon he is was jealous of the attention his younger sister was getting and developed the gender issue as a way to gain back the parents attention. Maybe the mother is a raging sexist and secretly hates males but realized she could have "two daughters" instead of the one. Lots of potential explanations.

The trying to copy a sister trend is one I hear a lot.

It is possible that the individual is experiencing gender dysphoria, a condition in which a person's gender identity differs from their sex assigned at birth. This can lead to feelings of discomfort and distress. It is also possible that the individual is seeking attention or trying to conform to societal expectations. More information is needed to make a definitive diagnosis.

No such thing as "sex assigned at birth". Your biological sex is observed, & that's it.
