In my last post, I mentioned "inconvenient exceptions". Here's one case, inconvenient for my own views, which means I must change them to accomodate reality.

From The Scavenger :

    EXCLUSIVE: 8 March 2010: The NSW government in Australia has issued what is believed to be the world's first 'Sex Not Specified' Recognised Details Certificate in place of a birth certificate, writes Katrina Fox.

    Norrie, a member of Sex and Gender Education (SAGE), a lobby group campaigning for the rights of all sex and gender diverse people has been issued with what is understood to be the world's first 'Sex Not Specified' Recognised Details Certificate in place of a birth certificate.

    This means that Norrie (also known as norrie mAy-Welby) – a resident of Sydney, NSW – is legally recognised as neither male nor female according to the Australian government.
