foxgrrlDear Lazyweb:
Can someone track down the exact written US State Department regulation, about exactly what is required to get one's gender changed on a US Passport? I have been unable to find it, and the person I talked to at the Transgender Law Center said that the actual regulation is not actually written down anywhere, and it's mostly up to the whim of whichever clerks are in the passport office that day. So I've heard several different things about what the letter should state, in order to get the gender changed.
