When I filled out the paperwork for my drivers license I was excited that there was an option to list my gender as non-binary! So I’m a little disappointed they labeled me as male despite my selection. Would have been cool to have an official ID with it 🥲

There’s a non-zero chance that it’s due to the current administration in Virginia. Hopefully able to get it sorted after November.

I would think you’re in your rights to contest that and get your ID re-done They have you the option of NB, you should be labeled NB Hell, it might not be malicious just straight up clerical error, but it should be fixed either way

Yeah I don’t think it was malicious. I think they were just going off info from my old learners permit many years back

Good luck driving. I was so nervous when I started driving. I calmed myself down by talking to myself in Scooby voice. I know not everyone can do that. 😅

what the fuck??? why did it have the option if they weren't going to respect it. And if they didn't put down what you selected... how did they determine what TO put down? did they GUESS? that's an awful system if they just put down what they think you look like

It's so shitty. I actually experienced something similar when I signed up for my first state ID. I said I didn't want to be an organ donor because I'm one of the least healthy people I know, but they labeled me as one anyway. The DMV really sucks sometimes. ... most of the time.

Your body your choice but I can’t imagine doctors wouldn’t check the health and viability of organs before slapping them inside other people lol

Yeah, you're probably right. I'm sorry, I feel silly now. The point is, fuck the DMV for getting your gender wrong. That really sucks.
