What scientific test can you apply to determine which one is lying?
The same test that you'd apply if they were lying about anything else. Is the lie somehow special because it involves something that you hold strong ideological beliefs about? No, it isn't.
Right. So there is no test you can apply to determine a person's gender. We can only believe what they say about their gender or not.
