I have seen people say this a few times and it's bugging me since I believe it is false (I have never seen or witnessed a Bearded Dragon change its sex) and I'm not sure if anyone else has in terms of scientific research. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong, I just want some clarification.
In all honesty, I think people are misreading an article that came out a year or two ago regarding changing sex during egg development (unless I am the one doing the misreading). Here is a quote from the research article.

Again, to clarify... a Bearded Dragon CANNOT magically change it's sex after birth? Correct? They can only change sex during egg development?
