“You need to learn to compromise, we’re not asking much. It’s not going to tear your arm off to put biologically accurate data onto government documents.”

Like... Why though? For what reason does the government need this and why would a normal person even care? I could see that it needs to be documented in medical history but even then they should refer to you properly.

Right? I bring this up a lot, like it just seems to me like Gender Markers on IDs and on Bathroom Plaques that just seem like relics from a time period where the law treated men and women far more differently than it does now.

Like, if bathroom stalls exist, why do bathrooms need to be segregated by gender?
