Must be a sincere coming-out, not a joke. Must express a strong desire to be the opposite biological sex, or intention to take cross-sex hormones, or consistently request to be addressed by opposite sex pronouns.

I assume the base rate of Americans being transgender is 0.06. I also assume that we are in the initial phase of transgenderism, in which the majority of newly out trans people are people who were previously closeted or unaware that transitioning was a thing. I approximate the beginning of the modern transgender era as 2010, so there are 12 years during which those 0.06 have their coming out years evenly distributed. This gives a probability of 0.06/12 for any American coming out in the next year. For the specific people this question is about, I assign each a Weirdness multiplier w_i and a Cross-Sex Idenfication multiplier s_i. Then the resulting probability of any of them coming out is: P = 1 - Π(1-w_i*s_i*p0). I get P=0.09.
@AB72ce oops, base rate should be 0.006 which makes my final answer 0.009 or 0.9%.
