If the GRA goes through is anyone planning on changing their gender?

I mean, if I legally change my gender I don't have to do anything else do I? Still dress and call myself whatever I want? I hope an 18% pay rise will be coming my way though.

I would have a very hard time determining my new gender. I simply cannot figure out where I belong on the spectrum. So I think I'll pass.

I think that makes you Agender Cwenthryh. There is no escaping the umbrella, we are all rainbow coloured whether we like it or not.

Maybe I’m being dense here as very tired, but as a gender critical feminist, I don’t ‘believe’ in gender as in it is not a concept that is relevant to me personally (clearly, other people do believe in gender!), I don’t have a gender - so no, I quite literally cannot change my gender as I don’t have one. Any more than an atheist can change which god they believe in, they don’t believe in any.

There was a thread on this a while back and I think quite a few of us are up for it. I haven’t asked my husband how he feels about being in a same sex marriage though.

Yes I will and my husband is very much looking forward to coming out as gay.

That's actually a good point on the payrise in jobs were men are paid more. I'd love to see a woman do this and ask for the male pay rate.

I was thinking of becoming a Flat Pack, their are hundreds of genders, so if you say I can't become a Flat Pack you are flatpackphobic
