The US State Department has issued its first gender-neutral passport, and will soon let any applicant pick an ‘X’ instead of a traditional male or female option. Commenters online rolled their eyes at the government’s priorities.
The State Department announced the issuing of the passport on Wednesday, with spokesman Ned Price declaring that the US “continues to take steps to demonstrate our commitment to promoting the freedom, dignity, and equality of all people – including LGBTQI+ US citizens.”
