    If you’re a woman then this doesn’t affect you.

    I think it only affects nonbinary folks.

    Edit: why was I downvoted for this?

      I now have to live in fear of the Government randomly declaring me a man.

      Because it very clearly does affect trans women? So either you’re not paying attention or you’re denying trans women their womanhood. Either way, downvote.

          If you missed it in the article:

          The order… directs the State Department… to “ensure that official government documents, including passports and visas, reflect sex accurately,” one of the officials said.

          That’s fucking terrible and possibly detrimental for the mental health of trans people.

              The article quote I linked says sex. If a person is pre-op or not choosing surgery, they will forced to have the wrong gender on their docs.

              I’m in Canada, your docs say what you identify as under “sex”.
