Nonbinary, intersex and gender-nonconforming Americans will be able to choose a gender option other than “male” or “female” when applying for a U.S. passport, the State Department announced Wednesday.
The policy change is part of the department’s effort to take “further steps toward ensuring the fair treatment of LGBTQI+ U.S. citizens, regardless of their gender or sex,” Secretary of State Antony Blinken said in Wednesday’s statement.
It is not yet known when the third gender marker, reportedly to be an “X,” will be available. Blinken said the department is currently “evaluating the best approach to achieve this goal” and noted that adding a gender option “is technologically complex and will take time.”
In the more immediate term, U.S. passport applicants will be able to self-select their gender and will no longer be required to provide medical documentation if their gender identity does not match the gender marker on their other identity documents.

I hope other countries bar entry to those with the third gender.
Your options will be: male, female, or Democrat
Under what law???
Child molesters like Bidet need a fourth option—pride ya know!
Because you can no longer tell what gender a corpse is by merely examining the body.
X is “None of the above.”
Laughable.
What! Only three genders. How about the other 300+. How antidiversity.
Keep in mind, Congress is incredibly lazy and risk-averse. When they write enabling legislation, they cede huge amounts of power and latitude to the Executive branch.
Democrats, allied with career bureaucrats, understand perfectly how to use these statutory loopholes to advance their agenda.
“Guess”
I don’t suppose anyone has considered how this kind of PC nonsense could/would be used by terrorists staying under the radar and want to travel back and forth to places like Iran-no, that would make too much sense-what a fustercluck...
“further steps toward ensuring the fair treatment of LGBTQI+ U.S. citizens,“
Treatment will never be fair if people keep allowing men to pretend to be women and accept them as such. Men are programmed to protect women. Allowing trannys access to women’s domains is not “fairness”. It is a slap in the face to women.
Clown world.
SCIENCE!
What? “E” none of the above?
calling all cars, be on the lookout for a nonbinary
Secretary of State Antony Blinken continues to give aid and comfort to the enemies of the United States.
Oh dear God
Insanity
