legallynonbinary:

Luckily I keep copies of my paperwork in at least triplicate so that they can’t do this in a way that messes with me… But they still did it when I applied for a passport. I tried getting my paperwork back and they said they “lost it”. They somehow lost 5 physician’s letters, 3 court documents, a certified copy of my birth certificate, a photocopy of my driver’s license, a photocopy of my social security card, the photocopies of Dana Zzyem’s case, the photocopies of their own policies as shown on their website, and the photocopies of how regulations for medical determination of sex say that doctors have the ultimate say, and it is the responsibility of government institutions to accommodate that for the health, freedom, and personal identity of the person applying for document without discrimination according to WPATH.

There were at least 700 people living in the state of New York alone at the end of 2016 who were legally recognized as intersex or nonbinary. Stay sharp, be aware of what they’re doing, keep trying. Don’t give up.
