According to the law here in NSW...
BIRTHS, DEATHS AND MARRIAGES REGISTRATION ACT 1995 - SECT 32B
Application to alter register to record change of sex
32B Application to alter register to record change of sex
(1) A person who is 18 or above:
(a) whose birth is registered in New South Wales, and
(b) who has undergone sexual reassignment surgery, and
(c) who is not married,
may apply to the Registrar, in a form approved by the Registrar, for alteration of the record of the person’s sex in the registration of the person’s birth.
An application under section 32B must be accompanied by:
(a) statutory declarations by 2 doctors, or by 2 medical practitioners registered under the law of any other State, verifying that the person the subject of the application has undergone sexual reassignment surgery, and
(b) such other documents and information as may be prescribed by the regulations.
Now, taking this into consideration, and that 'sexual reassignment surgery' is, by common definition, full gender surgery(try doing a search in yahoo for 'sexual reassignment surgery' and see what comes up in the results), an orchidectomy does not constitute SRS and so would not make you eligible for an amended birth certificate.
Dont you think that if it was that easy that all the tranies that inhabit red-light districts selling themselves to pay for the operation would have taken the initiative long before now?
A corrected birth certificate is the result of complying with the standards of care followed by the medical fraternity, all the way through to post-operative SRS, and in my beleif, earned by blood sweat and tears over the passing of many years, not an entitlement born of the cut of a surgeons blade, easily arranged and, quite frankly, 'cheap'. |
