Allow Diagnosed Transgender persons the right to change their Birth Certificate

Closed 101 signatures

What the petition asks

We the undersigned do petition the Hm Government in light of Transgenderism being recognised as a Medical Condition to allow Diagnosed Transgender persons the right to change their Birth Certificate without resort to Gender Reassignment Surgery or need to apply for a Gender Recognition Certificate
It is now accepted by the scientific and Medical Fraternity that Transgenderism is a recognised Medical Condition , it is widely accepted that this is due to the breakdown of the SRY Gene . Brain scans carried out by several universities have shown recognisable differences in the Transgender Brain . Transgender persons are mentally Assessed prior to Diagnoses and are found to be at odds with their Gender as assigned at Birth . We are able to change other legal documents to represent our gender .
