UT, as I said 'I await the evidence'...till then: 'he'.
So you said. Inherent in that statement is that you don't know whether evidence was been or will be brought.

Psychology has forever labeled certain traits "disorder", only to learn later that they were only considered disorder because of the cultural norms of the day.

Such was homosexuality, which was considered to be due to uncorrected personality traits* up to about three decades ago.

And gays, as a result, were (and are) treated so incredibly poorly. Well, we didn't know.
