    🫂 I’m sorry you’re dealing with this BS. I hope it gets through in case you need it.

    Also like, wasn’t there a freaking order from a federal judge saying passports had to be issued with the correct, updated gender for trans people and not your birth sex?! Did that get overruled or were they just in flagrant violation of the law? Neither would surprise me, shit just moves so fast nowadays I don’t know if I’m out of date.

      thank you i appreciate the kindness.

      That’s what I thought as well which is why i was trying to get it done. When i asked about that she just said it was like this ‘because of trump’. After telling her I wasn’t a man and didn’t want to swear that I was, she made it very clear she was not going to accept my application with an F on it. I was getting flustered at that point so i just submit to the ignominy. There was a big line of folks behind me.

      I figured trying to get it fixed is better than not having one at all if an opportunity to leave comes up.

      I live in one of the most queer cities in the country too I don’t think she was a transphobe just your average grumpy clerk.
