(3). Jessica Stern is the Biden administration’s special diplomatic representative for LGBTQ rights. She said it brings government documents in line with the "lived reality" that there are more sexes than just male or female.

(6). Zzyym, an intersex activist from Colorado, has battled the agency since 2015. Zzyym was denied a passport for failing to choose male or female on official documents. Court documents say Zzyym wrote "intersex" above the boxes marked "M" and "F." In a separate letter, Zzyym requested an "X" designation for intersex.
Zzyym是来自科罗拉多州的一位双性人活动家,他从2015年以来一直在跟美国国务院打官司。Zzyym被拒绝签发护照,因为他未能在官方文件上选择男性或女性。法院文件称Zzyym在标有男或女的方框上写上了双性人。在另一封信中,Zzyym要求将双性人标注为X性别。
(7). Zzyym was born without a definite gender. Court documents say Zzymm was raised as a boy and underwent several operations to appear fully male.

美国国务院拒绝给Zzyym发放护照,这使得ZZyym无法前往墨西哥参加国际双性人组织的会议。
(10). The State Department announced in June that it was moving toward adding a third gender designation for nonbinary, intersex, and gender-nonconforming people. A nonbinary person is someone whose gender identity is not completely male or female. A gender-nonconforming person is someone who does not follow the expected behaviors of their birth gender.
美国国务院今年6月宣布,它正在为非二元性、双性和性别不一致人士增加第三种性别标注。非二元性人士是指性别认同不完全是男性或女性的人士。性别不一致人士是指不遵循其出生性别预期行为的人士。
(11). The State Department said that adding a third gender designation would take time because it would require many changes to its computer system. An official said the passport document and system with the "X" designation still must be approved by the Office of Management and Budget.

(15). She hopes that it might push other governments to offer the X marker.

她说:“我们认为这是肯定和提升各地跨性别、双性、性别不一致以及非二元性人士人权的一种途径。”
