A Republican lawmaker has once again revived a bid to overturn same-sex marriage protections in the US, claiming it threatens the stability of “society as a whole”.

North Idaho GOP legislator Tony Wisniewski introduce a joint memorandum on Monday (23 February) that would call on the US Supreme Court to reverse its landmark decision on Obergefell v Hodges.

hi there. My name is Dakota Christine, and I am one of the many that received the letter following SB 244.

I am intersex; I was born with Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome, and have always… always… been a girl.

I was forced by the State of Kansas to hand in my drivers license, as if I was a criminal.

My drivers license was invalidated and void overnight, without warning, and it was a crime for me to drive to the DMV, to get my new license.

I do not feel equally protected, and it saddens me the lack of empathy within our Kansas State Legislature.

I am one of many that just want to exist. Live in peace, be free.

0.43% of the Kansas population is Transgender.

Percentage of Intersex people in Kansas? 0.018%

I am one of the many affected by this horrendous bill. I sobbed the entirety of yesterday, and I am so ashamed of the state that I grew up in.

I tried so hard to smile for my ‘new’ license picture, but how could I, when the state I live in, targets such a small minority.

Please vote. Please protest. This affects me, your neighbor. Your friend. Someone you actually know.

The power is and has always been with the people

I had to look it up since I am not well informed on the subject.
{...
The different types of AIS are:

  • Complete androgen insensitivity syndrome (CAIS): Your body doesn’t respond to androgens at all. Your external genitals appear female, but you don’t have female sex organs (no ovaries, fallopian tubes or uterus). People with CAIS are often raised as girls with a female gender identity. Approximately 1 in 20,000 genetically male infants are born with complete androgen insensitivity syndrome.

So it seems to me that regardless of being XY instead of XX, the person essentially is still female.
How they develop, feel, and appear will be female.
