    Honestly I think it would make sense to remove gender from all forms of government identification… does it REALLY matter to anyone other than your medical practitioner?

      To most people? No. But it really matters to Republicans what’s in your pants.

        Tricky trans people tricked them once in college, and they liked it. Can’t have that.

      Practically, yes. If the embassy were evacuating citizens, they’d need to know if the Tracey Warner they’re looking for is male or female.

        How helpful is that discriminator going to be for someone who chooses to put X as their gender? Not to mention just being actively misleading for butch women of feminine men.
