They tried that a long while back. They got slapped down hard legally because that's a monopolistic business practice and is illegal.

Unfortunately, I can't find it :(

 

I received my proof of publication last night! Legal name change, here we come!

I have a "hearing" on July 13th - they told me it's not a real hearing, there's nothing to show up to, but the day before, email the court with proof of publication and the final form, and then assuming all is well, July 13th, at 1:30 PM, my name is legally changed!

And then I gotta start figuring out how to update all the other documents I need updated. Driver's license, social security card, birth certificate, diploma... all that jazz. Bit daunting, but gotta start somewhere!

"MTF" feels sometimes like a backhanded way of still calling me a guy. I'm not a guy. It also reinforces the gender binary, which I feel we have a pretty significant population that doesn't fall neatly into that or feel comfortable self-describing as that.

I think it also might benefit to mention that while yes, this is a community about transfems, all queer or even cis people are welcome to engage so long as they're respectful. Possibly in the sidebar.
