Just got back from an appointment with the BGE, the state-affiliated organisation that helps me with starting a company. Instead of progressing on that company, I made progress on my legal gender change. :queercat_heart_trans:
I asked my advisor if she could write a testimony about my gender identity. To change my legal gender, I have to show I am presenting myself on a daily basis as my self-identified gender, so I need to collect testimonies/material evidence supporting that.
My advisor was so kind and took it really seriously 🥰.
She made a testimony, which means she had to give me a copy of both faces of her ID card. She wrote a lot of things. She said that I've asked to be called Miya and referred to as a woman from the start. She also said she felt I had carefully considered this undertaking and that she thinks the change is necessary.
She gave me some material evidence available to her: a screenshot of their database showing I am registered under my new name and gender, and two emails we exchanged, including one where I thanked her for using my new name, to which she replied it was normal and that she supported me in my transition.
Tomorrow, I will ask my doctor to do the same, I hope it goes well!
Huh, seems like Musk is bowing down to the right wing, nationalist prime minister of India by banning Twitter accounts critical of government policy. Totally a bastion of free speech, right?
I seriously just want to flee to Canada, Europe, anywhere I can where the government isn't shitting itself all the damn time.
These Japanese old timers can't even fucking fix this country. They can't even recognise the LGBTQ because "tRaDitIOn!" and that crap. Also because this shit population is filled with too many elderly people.
I'm Janie Lynn, trans woman from Texas. Trying out mastodon for the same reason many others are, because Twitter has gotten worse and worse and I'm pretty sure it's half bots at this point. I saw that there was an introduction hashtag and figured I'd give posting a try here since I hardly did on Twitter!
I'm a gamer, singer, electronic musician of sorts and sometimes a painter.
Follow me for no reason, I'll just be there hanging out.
