I have a close family member who is transgender. Nobody meeting him would suspect that he is or ever was anything other than a "man." And nobody, after 5 mins talking with him, would imagine that his identity was a result of "gender theory."

This makes me wonder whether the authors of this Vatican document have actually spent 5 mins talking to transgender persons. If not, it suggest that it is their teaching that is based on an ideologically based theory of gender.

That document is a prime example of expecting people to conform to theory rather than the other way around.
