    Except we all know this is not done in good faith to fix a real problem. It’s real intent to further push a transphobic agenda and punish people who are trans.

      But this should never have been the case, the birth certificate should never have been in this discussion. I don’t want these people to be discriminated against but this is a stupid argument to have made in the first place. It is not transphobic to factually record whether a new born has a penis or a vagina - which is the entirety of what the intention of recording gender has been since the beginning of records.

        Would agree, except 99% of person identification, uses sex and specifically YOUR birth certificate. For current identification purposes for anything official.

          They are a legal record of your birth, get an ID for identification. I have no problem with someone changing any ID or being considered whatever they want. My only issue is the birth cert side of things.
