I'm indifferent but I think its just shifting the implication from when a gender was assigned to who assigned it. Unfortunately both will become useful as distinct terms cause im sure the state isnt too far from assigning genders to adults pretty soon.

The correct followup to the deeply yappy comment I made is "Beyond Pink and Blue by Leslie Feinberg is a useful read for an intro to gender assigment as a concept and also just rocks" doggirl-smart

The assignment of gender to a person is already a constant and multifaceted process happening to people of all ages. You have a marker on your birth certificate that extends to other forms of identification, don't you?

Yes, at birth and it was assigned by the state. So assigned x at birth by the state would be the most accurate but I think either is implied regardless of which you choose to emphasize. The state assigns your gender at birth, so either or works.

theory-gary As a cool* bonus the state may also choose to redesignate your gender based on ✨ the vibes ✨ if you are intersex and they sufficiently dislike you and/or find it convenient!

We live in different states and I should have used used the present tense.
