Link to a Reddit post by an activist I know.

But to summarise, Amendment NC21 to the Data Use and Access Bill would require sex to be defined as "sex at birth" for all identity verification requests.

This includes people who have changed their sex legally, which will now be separately catalogued.

This means that all kinds of people, including (potential) employers, landlords, government staff etc. will be able to look up these details about you.

This amendment will be voted on on the 7th of May, so if you're in the UK please badger your MP to vote against it (template email in the Reddit post)

Labels are always used against you, and they still came up with 100 labels...

Sorry but when history repeats it self all ya can do is blame yourself...

Why cant we all be adults and just have unisex bathrooms. We could solve the urinal issue over night. Urinal, stall, urinal, stall
