What Bev said. I would also like to add that there is no way to source the date of birth (or death) separately from the place of birth (or death). It is very common to have different sources for these two things.

You may also put in an Alt Birth using the same birth information but adding a note that the 1891 Census contains an error on gender and sourcing it with the 1901 and 1911 Censuses. If you also use new.FamilySearch verify that the information there is correct or corrected. Bev March The 1891 census shows Bertie Knight as a 4-year-old daughter. I added her as such. Then she appeared in 1901 as a 14-year-old son, working as a hay binder. In 1911, she is also a son and still working as a hay binder. It seems reasonably obvious that he was mislabelled in 1891, so I clicked the "M" button and tried to add the 1911 census as a source for the sex change. "The cursor is not in a field which accepts a specific source". There doesn't appear to be a way to source the gender specifically? Any advice on how to source this?
