Is... is that the actual wording?

Holy shit. Surely those who drafted this realize the importance of wording in legal documents. What an egregious error.

Fuck you I'm a woman owned business now and also my DMV can't issue liscences designated male without proof of.... exogenesis? Parthogenisis? Some kind of nobel winning genesis?

Um. I am a trans woman and this deeply affects me as well. I believe you misread my intention here. What I said was far from a compliment.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (2 children)

ah shit. Bad wording. I'm sorry I didn't mean for it to come off that way, just upset and didn't mean to minimize. I can't do much, but I can be a pain in the ass at the DMV tomorrow and force a case. Not much blowback on someone like me.

Good news for you: embros don't produce gametes at all. Everyone is now legally agender. You can refuse to issue female licences too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

I don't get to refuse anything. I'm just complying with an order, or my state is saying, on record, they refuse to comply. All I can do is say the facts. Facts don't care about your feelings.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Ah, it's all good :) I understand your meaning now.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

thanks. sorry. I am upset an amount beyond the right I have, but also have the responsibility, to be.

Why would you think that? These lines were written by fascists to appeal to morons. Proper wording only matters for those of us that live in reality.

Honestly, a part of me is wondering if this is a case of malicious compliance. Like, did one of these evil motherfuckers offload the task of drafting this onto someone with a human soul?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

i was literally just thinking that! it feels like some trolling staffer(s) with a knowledge of biology got a jab in.

You’re giving them more credit than they’ve shown.
