Don't worry, there will be time to get to the other half of the argument. It is, however, important to decide based on a solid basis.

All I can see so far from the example(s) provided is that one or two Time Lords considered a particular gender to be normal for them. Given the total number of Time Lords (one can guesstimate it from the number of children on Gallifrey at the moment of the end of the Time War, which was in the billions), there is, statistically speaking, almost no information about their views on gender change. The percentage of Time Lords who voiced their opinion on the subject is (almost) 0.

Of course, if the Doctor (or another Time Lord) said something about all Time Lords rather than him/herself, that would be in-universe evidence. My question is whether any such general statement exists? So far I've only seen subjective statements about individual preferences. A reason to generalise from one General to all Time Lords is lacking.
