@Keicowku@kind.social relevant personal anecdote: my current birth certificate (the second one i was issued, about 14 months after the first one, because my parents got married and my mom and i took my dad's last name) does not have a gender field
if i get a third one issued with my most recent name, it will have a gender field. and i have very good reason to believe that they would decide to put down a gender i don't agree with.
hence why i haven't gotten around to it.
