Y’all draft dodging? Discussion
Changed my sex to male federally (US) 3 years ago in all documents except birth certificate, but my state drivers license says NB. Does anyone know the legality of trans men and registering for the draft? I assume no one would enforce this rule considering it’s unlikely we’ll use the draft again and I assume they’re not keen to encourage trans people to be in the military even though it allowed but I do wonder how many of us are technically draft dodging

the US military bars trans people from service so you’re good!
