No, you are misunderstanding what is meant with "identification" in these texts. The starting point is PG's text.

It is about how "identification" clouds your judgement. If you can just describe yourself ("happen to be male") that is one thing; if when you think of yourself you cannot abstract from some attributes, there is where you have "caged" yourself.
