Aja the Queen posted on social media that, despite having all the correct documentation, she was still issued a passport with the gender marker ‘M’ to indicate male. ‘This isn’t a clerical error. This is a federal fumble with my life in the crosshairs,’ the star wrote.
The Trump administration decided in January that gender markers on passports must match what individuals were assigned at birth — even if they’ve legally updated other important documents. Aja is just the latest celebrity to be misgendered because of this policy. In February, Hunter Schafer also received a new passport with the incorrect information.
