the problem with the stupid "x" instead of an indication of a person's sex on ID documents is that it diminishes the usefulness of the document to please narcissists or liars. The purpose of any ID document is not some ego stroke of the identified, but to make so the state or some authority can pin down if the person holding the document is the person identified on it. Imagine the trouble coming for bar owners when they go to check someone's ID and a guy puts on a wig and walks in with his older sister's id.
