Should GRCs just be turned into printable downloadable certificates?

[Middlelanehogger]

Freely available to anyone who wants one with no hoops required

You can download and print as many as you want in a day

Fill in whatever gender you want, according to your freely-expressed identity

...of course, since they would now be so easily obtainable, it would be quite unreasonable to treat them as something meaningful for the purposes of admission to women's spaces... Wouldn't that be an unfortunate side effect? 😘

No. They should repeal the Act. It's a monstrous lie which has had far reaching consequences. #RepealTheGRA

But just think. It would be such fun. The certificates could be in rainbow Comic Sans and decorated with clipart...

Unfortunately, since the only value inherent in a GRC is that it allows you to get a new Birth Certificate, they might as well dish out BCs instead, cutting the Admin and paper consumption even further.

Although ideally the updated BCs would be decorated with cartoons of Drag Queens, Rainbow Dildo Butt Monkeys, Mermaids with double mastectomy scars and Adult Babies. Perhaps Grayson Perry could design them?

Oh, good idea @Bosky . Rainbow dildo butt monkeys are an important part of TQ+ culture and it would be only right to acknowledge that prominently on the new certificates. Inclusivity!

Yes.
But change the act so you can no longer get a new birth certificate - they show your sex, not your gender.
And strengthen the Equality Act to make plain that 'sex' means your actual sex, and nothing to do with your gender.

That would be self ID then wouldn't it?

Agree.

Maybe there could be a colouring-in section too. 🤣

They could do Premium "Pop-Up" versions to try to help cover the costs.

M: Pop-up Pseudo-Phallus - with a tiny tube attached to a little balloon to pump it up.

F: Pop-up Bogus-Boobs - with teats that squeak like a bronchitic weasel when squeezed.
