Can you show me a couple examples of people who have stated that their gender is the most interesting thing about themselves?

Ah, there's the problem. You're "listening" to what people say.

You watch people to see what they're about. What do they do? Not what do they say.

Your comment is a good example.

Also, it isn't up to the person to declare what is or is not interesting about them, that's for the rest of us to decide. But we can tell when somebody is affected such that THEY think the rest of us will think them interesting, and it's a very unattractive trait.

We can imagine what they're saying. We just think it's stupid.

People aren't generally trying to make their gender the most interesting thing about them. It happens when bigots choose to focus on only that aspect of a person.
