  • Sources are invalid or broken "Ohio recognized X gender markers from other states/countries, but DOES NOT (and has never) allowed residents to change their gender marker to X. Recognizing foreign ids is not the same as people living in a place having any of the relevant rights. Also the OSU link is broken."
