This has me so angry. So, so angry. This is straight up deliberate intolerance from the same state that brought you Massive Resistance.

My judge tried telling me that he might require surgery. I brought the WPATH guidelines and a letter from my therapist with me.

These aren't required, of course. But as a trans person I guess different due process laws apply to me.

He then made the Clerk of Court attach the letter from my therapist to my name change order. So my private medical info is now public info.

Believe it or not, this is only narrowly not a HIPAA violation. But I went with it because I needed so badly to be named Emily.

Fun fact: to change gender with the VA DMV, you send a form in to their central office, which sends you an approval response in a few weeks.

You then take this approval to your local DMV. The letter has language that basically reads "call this number if the clerk starts crap."

The way state/local institutions treat trans people in this state is so dehumanizing. I feel so bad for this woman.

It's ridiculous. No one is going to change gender to get away from creditors. No one.
