[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How does this make sense? If you present as a female, but were born a male, and you get a new license that identifies you as a male, won’t that visual disconnect be confusing for anyone who has to check the  ID?  They might think it’s a fake. [/quote]
Then point is to make life miserable for those people by adding just one more awkward interaction for them to have on a regular basis. Somehow, that will make trans people go away.[/quote]

So this is all about not making people feel awkward?[/quote]
What public safety purpose does it serve?[/quote]

It’s recognizing reality and biological fact. You’re assuming these people actually look like someone of the opposite gender. [/quote]

What does appearance have to do with the ability to operate a motor vehicle?
Second--many do, if they have been lucky enough to access quality gender affirming care. Some of the military trans people who have sued the feds are absolutely indistinguishable from a good looking catalogue--both male and female. And if fact if some of those trans people identified as female at birth strolled into a ladies room someone would be calling the cops--a conundrum nobody has ever given an answer for.

As for the use of drivers licenses for identity, how does gender matter? You have a name, a birthdate, a number, and a photo. You see if the photo appears to be of the same person. [/quote]
