FUCK YEAH, GENDERQUEERS

The UK Census 2011. I’m objecting to this question, because there was no mention of anything other than binary sex.
Some people are actually biologically neither male nor female. Which box do they tick?
Thanks for taking this stand for trans* identified people!
I’ve just published an article at PracticalAndrogyny.com giving my thoughts on this matter and details of the answers given to me by the Office of National statistics before the 2001 and 2011 UK censuses:

I hope you don’t mind that I used a cropped version of your photo in the blog post (linking back to your Tumblr).
Awesome article, and thanks for linking back. :) I’m reblogging in case anyone following me fancies reading the article, too.
People interested in this issue may also want to read about my gender-neutral title proposal.
Going to reblog this because it’s awesome. The more awareness that is spread, the less invisible those outside the gender binary will become. I’m emailing my MP right away. The gender-neutral title idea is absolutely wonderful, and I might adopt that myself. :D
