As I said, they need to enter their sex. The article (and your quotes of it) say they should not enter the gender of their choosing. Or do you agree with Republicans that sex and gender are the same thing?
I disagree that “sex” on a driver’s license means “biological sex.”
The article very clearly describes that sex, not gender, needs to be entered into the form. That is how one gets and renews a driver’s license in Florida. And again, I would like to re-iterate, transgender people are free to get and renew drivers licenses in Florida. The article’s title is simply not supported by the facts or even the article’s contents.
Yes, I realize what it says. Just because the people who make licenses don’t know the difference between sex and gender doesn’t mean they actually want to know the biological sex of the person being issued on the card.
Otherwise, please explain to me why biological sex is a necessary thing to have on an identification card and gender is not.
Arli and the article only use “may” and “could” because we have no instances of it in practice yet and they can’t directly assert the policy’s intention as hastily. But it is simple: If you don’t add your biological sex, they can count it as fraud and subsequently refuse to update your documents. We’re all commenting on it because it’s so simple and obvious. It’s Florida. We know what they’re doing.

I disagree that “sex” on a driver’s license means “biological sex.” Because that really doesn’t matter on a driver’s license, does it?

God forbid a trans person sees a male/female field on a form and puts down their gender! Right to jail!

Dunno how x or xxy people gonna follow the law, since Florida doesn’t define sex in state law.
Obviously some rando on the internet knows better than a nonprofit dealing with these types of issues daily.
It’s a shitty source that’s trying to get people angry for clicks.
These people do not argue in good faith.
You know how doesn’t argue in good faith? Conservatives.
