Hi Everyone! I'm planning on adding stuff here but first enjoy your new weekly mega <3
Join our public Matrix server!

As a reminder, please do not discuss current struggle sessions in the mega. We want this to be a little oasis for all of us and the best way to do that is not to feed into existing conflict on the site.
Also, be sure to properly give content warnings and put sensitive subjects behind proper spoiler tags. It's for the mental health of not just your comrades, but yourself as well.
Here is a screenshot of where to find the spoiler button.
Conflicted on whether I want a legal record of changing my sex in terf island or not
Yeah, your system is really strange with the whole un/enrolled deed poll and GRC. In my case itβs pretty obvious what the right answer is because I canβt change my name without changing my legal sex first.
I don't really understand the name change part. Are people not normally allowed to change their names? In the US you can just go do that whenever, for whatever reason. As long as it's not something ridiculous, and you pass a background check, it's just a bit of paperwork and a small fee.
Some countries have laws regarding the gender of names, so you can't change your name from a 'male' name to a 'female' name or vice versa. Some names are seen as unisex though so you can freely use those regardless of your gender.
