Gender markers
Gender markers are labels or identifiers that indicate a person's gender, often used in official documents like passports or driver's licenses. Common markers include "male," "female," and sometimes "non-binary" or "gender-neutral." These markers help in recognizing and respecting an individual’s gender identity. However, they can also lead to issues for those whose gender identity doesn’t align with traditional categories. Discussions around gender markers are increasingly focused on inclusivity, allowing individuals to express their identities more accurately and comfortably in society.
