True Self Cards

Hi Rycharde,

You are lucky to be Canadian. I agree that it would be better not to have M or F on birth certificates. You mention an interesting fact about Australia. However, using chromosomes on ID cards etc. might also cause many problems. For instance, I believe that most CAIS women would definitely not want to be labeled as XY. I have learned that chromosomes are not really an improvement over the F and M labels. They are just another set of boxes. I like your idea of a true self ID card, where the true self would be determined by the holder of the card. We could get really creative and artistic in creating our individual cards. I am already thinking of my card.....

Peter
