@eunews or, maybe it's time to stop mentioning people's gender on ID documents. Like, completely eliminate it. There's no actual reason for it.

i too love when a thing that makes me feel euphoric and accomplished that i achieved it is considered "unnecessary" to some tumblrite lunatic that demands it to be erased because they are hurt by it

sorry bub, you will not be taking that sweet victory of mine.

sorry that you're too much of a coward who doesn't fight back but i'm built different and said legal gender is, to me, a proof of winning an important battle much like soldiers get medals

@m000gletje @eunews @pq1r I'm happy for your achievement and I support your right of self expression, but I also understand the general idea that the government having any say in gender is obsolete. Every time I see a form - be it a government or a company one - that asks me for my gender I think "why". The only places that should care are dating apps, and possibly social media (although that one is better served by asking pronouns and/or titles instead).

you're all cowards who are afraid of picking up a fight, that's what the reality is

and instead of picking the fight you want to take away what some have fought for actually because you don't feel included and you want a participation trophy

crazy how you all spout how you're definitely not mad about what i achieved, yet never thought of a consensus of choice; let people choose if they want that on their ID or not

but no, you need a participation trophy instead

@m000gletje @eunews @pq1r I think I simply prefer a world where you can change your gender by stating so instead of having to go through a lot of bureaucracy? In the same way that your ID doesn't list your sex chromosomes, your genitals, your sexual orientation or whether you are into feet, I don't think it should list your gender?
