Third Gender Option for Passports

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/sep/15/australian-passports-third-gender-option

I think that with Australia giving people a third gender option is an amazing idea. It is a break through for some people who fight for those types of rights everyday. For the people who aren't sure of what gender they themselves are can chose this option instead of putting down an check for male when they look like a female. No one wants to get questioned for what body parts they have, its whats in between the ears that matters. For people that are androgynous, why should they have to be questioned, this option gives them the right to get away from those questions. It's not like they are hiding anything, they are really just fighting for their identity but are constantly being shut down for looking different.
