Periodic reminder that as long as birth certificates have a "gender" section, then your government is literally running a children's genital registry.

IF THAT SOUNDS WEIRD, THAT'S BECAUSE IT *IS* WEIRD.

Why do I care? Personally, I care because I am a parent of an enby kid, and I don't have to explain to a lot of you what that means in terms of travel and governments. But even if I abstract away from that and look at it from a purely impersonal point of view, it makes *no sense* why any government body would keep records of that data. It's a bizarre vestige of the darker times when your status as a citizen was largely defined at the time of your birth (noble, peasant, male, female, Jewish, Protestant, etc).

@monsieuricon Does this mean that I will be a criminal when I change my birth certificate to "female" despite not having a vagina?

Please tell me it makes me a criminal.

@monsieuricon I can't say for US but maybe used to track men for military service? Definitely needs to be reworked though.

A person's DNA is written before birth
and gender is marked in that

I think in the future your ID will be your DNA
it is getting quicker to obtain it now
and it would have to be near impossible to forge it?

What gender a person calls themselves?
Should then be up to them
A person may be able to change the gender on a birth certificate
but they can not change it in their DNA

My question would be
could transgender be read from a person's DNA
has anyone even looked for it?

@spots1000 Too late for that one. Oh darn, the laws intended to criminalize my existence have made me a criminal. Who'd have seen that one coming.

How do you know your kid is enby?
Seems like you will give them gender dysphoria.
