funniest possible response to getting my gender marker changed
#In my state you can correct your documents to say X (dont gotta be nonbinary it can be used by anyone who wants to)#And documents can also be corrected to say INTERSEX#And you don't gotta submit proof of transition or anything (under 18s need a doctor note) which is neat :D#Tbh it's brought me great comfort to be able to grow into my maleness rather than to simply declare myself male after I've “become one”#And we're currently working on a law that makes it a bit easier for felons to legally transition which is great#Because trans people who have been homeless/sex workers/addicts are disproportionately policed#Of course the process of legally changing your name and sex marker here is only easi/er/. Not easy.#I spent a whole 9 months having to pay for neccessary perscriptions out of pocket#Because I had to manually get my records changed with Every. Single. Doctor. Even ones within the same office#Like. Surely there's a way to do it just once and have it reflected in the entire system automatically#Infuriating#And that was AFTER I spent 6 months just filling out paperwork and getting bg checks and waiting for my new birth certificate in the mail#It took approximately 2 years from begining to end to be fully completely and universally recognized as my true name and gender#And you know what?#I just found out there's Another place I have to change it#*sigh*#Anyway this is really funny!
