    Organ Inventory > Sex at Birth > Gender, in a medical context.

    Ideally you have all three because all are medically relevant (self-explanatory, chromosomes, and hormones, in that order - all medically relevant), but good luck passing legislation to put all three on an ID, not to mention the dangers (in many places of the world) of having “Hello I am sex or gender non-conforming” on your ID everywhere you go.

      No, “sex at birth” is not a meaningful category, and institutions collecting such data opens up new vectors for worse outcomes while also being extremely disrespectful towards patients.
