Call to action to cis people: be assholes anytime you get asked for your sex assigned at birth.

Call to action to cis people: be assholes anytime you get asked for your sex assigned at birth. Write letters, complain to staff, refuse to answer. Make it impossible to collect sex assigned at birth. Be really offended that anyone would ask you. Make enough noise that if trans people want to quietly not answer or give whatever answer feels correct to them, no one will notice.

@Willow... and if you don't feel quite ready to do this yet, warm up to it by noticing how often you're asked your sex assigned at birth, and how seldom it is relevant. Seriously. Think about it. Then start making a noise. "why do you need to know!?"

@Willow I'm gonna go with my "sex" at conception.

@Willow let's normalize loudly asking "and what fucking business is that of YOURS?" more often.

@Willow I have to tell you, I became militant about this last year. I'm old. I see a LOT of medical people, all kinds. Every single time I'm asked that, and I'm asked that in person each time because I refuse to fill it out and when I can't finish the electronic registration because I haven't completed that question they HAVE TO ASK ME IN PERSON. They won't do it. And they think about why. and that's what I can do.

I will throw sand in the gears of marginalization, by feigning ignorance and incompetence, and eventually I will be indignant that they feel the need to check what's in my pants. As a straight white Christian with English as his first language, I am entitled to the Right of Karen: "Who is your supervisor?"

@Willow If I am ever asked about sex I always say yes because it is like pizza, even if it's bad it's still pretty good

@Willow Exactly, and go further. Not just sex or gender. Anything. Everything. want to know my age? Location? Nationality? No. Why do you need to know? I'm not telling you that.
