I need to change the gender on my passport but I have a lot of legal and financial documents that is under my name. I have no issues with keeping my male names on my passport and Hong Kong ID card, drivers license, club memberships etc. So after a short consideration I will change my gender only. Thus no change in signature and my ID only needs one little adaptation FEMALE

People that know me on this forum know that I have no hang ups and proud that I am tg. I have zero problem passing in looks, voice and mannerisms but I choose to inform people of who I am. I have never have been misgendered, except over the phone where, at time,  the male on the phone,  starts treating me as a second class female. Its not the voice but my aggressive attitude that suddenly they start calling me sir....Or they look up my details and start calling me sir.....what a change in how I am treated

I live in Bangkok now and Thai TGs also have male IDs so I feel comfortable..... but I am called by my female name...My male name is Robert/Bob but I am called Bobbi or Roberta, can't wait for genderless IDs.
When we first start our journey the perception and moral values all dramatically change in wonderment. As we evolve further it all becomes normal again but the journey has changed us forever.

Good on ya!  :)  Until we have equal rights to just be ourselves, it's going to take more out and proud people like us to turn the tide.
