After all, my passport states my hair colour and eye colour but it's so easy to change both these days that the identifying feature is actually meaningless! I'd like to be identified as female, it's been my lifelong wish, but failing that, just get rid of a sex/gender marker for everyone.

Thankfully, it's not too serious in this case.

Right now, it's only a minor inconvenience for EU and USA citizens on each other's continents. Hopefully, both sides will be interested in rolling back the offending regulations and permit rules soon.....
