So anyone can self identify as anything and switch around on a whim, or whats the determining factor?

If I get arrested can I say I'm a female and get put in a women's prison for instance, or do I need gender affirming surgery, what's the stipulations and the fleshed out plan?

Let me turn that around on you:

Should a male-presenting, gay sex offender go to a male prison or female prison? What is the purpose of gendered prisons? What problem is it trying to solve? And why are we using gender for that instead of "likely victims of the incarcerated individual"?

Gendered prisons are a ridiculous notion that only exist because our prison system itself is completely fucked up, profit-driven, and inhumane. It produces worse outcomes than almost any other form of legal consequences except in extreme cases.

at least you bring forward an actual argument.

i've seen so many transphobes who just say "god didn't want it" and that's the end of the story. we need more discussion in our world, and we need good arguments; even if i don't agree with you.

Regardless of gender, if there is a prisoner who is likely to perpetrate sexual violence, then the great care needs to be taken to ensure the safety of other prisoners. Cis people are plenty capable of committing sexual assault. Trans people are far more likely to be victims of sexual violence than perpetrators of it.
