A super amazing thing happened. I got asked to show an ID with my old gender marker..
I was so not expecting this because I havent gone full time yet. And was presenting in full male mode with a baggy jeans n ol..
So exactly what happen was that I assumed that the world saw me as the old me and so walked into the security check que for guys. The officer there wouldnt let me pass. He kept insisting that the boarding pass was made for 'Mr'.. And I was no way in hell a Mr. So had to show my ID card with my wrong gender marker to pass... Lol.
. Can't help but I have a really REALLY big grin in my face as I type this...
Thanks and hugs sooo much to everyone here... It is your support and help that has allowed me progress so far.. Thank you soo much.. Xoxo

I've been wondering about this. Do you need to replace your license every few months to keep up?

Saying that in the last year i have been asked twice by the security at my workplace to get my snap updated on the id card. Have got that done. But I am so too lazy about the other govt. documents.
