In an historic decision with far-reaching implications for institutions and individuals across the country, the Court on Wednesday formally upheld the right of transgender person Norrie to be registered as neither a man nor a woman with the NSW registry of births, deaths and marriages.
The case began in 2010 when Norrie, who identifies as neuter [. . . ] became the first person in NSW to be neither man nor woman in the eyes of the government with a formal "sex not specified" registration. But four months later the registry wrote to Norrie,[. . .] saying the change had been "issued in error" and was invalid.

I think this is fantastic! Really, Pakistan allows a 3rd gender category on personal documents, why don't we? I hope more countries catch up.
