If people knew what we went through...

Here’s a photo journal of my journey from changing my name, to first day out at work, to getting my passport, to losing my family, to now

Let’s see when people decide it’s ok for me to “self ID” who I am

So, first day on hormones!
1/25

Next, the day I changed my legal name

Is that the point I meet their standard?
2/25

The day I got my corrected passport maybe?
3/25

It’s gonna be a long thread so, get comfortable.
Whilst my life is fairly innocuous, I still face a lot of discrimination. It’s driven by a number of factors but, mostly ignorance and a lack of understanding. So, let’s clear a few things up. /1

Q: What are Trans People?
A: We’re normal people who just happen to not identify with some of the characteristics we were born with. These can be physical or emotional issues and some trans people take medical or social steps to resolve their conflicts. /2

Q: So they’re confused?
A: No. I had a long period of my life where I couldn’t understand a lot of the conflict I had in myself. This can look like confusion but, I always knew who I was. It was just working out how to convey that to everyone else. /3

I’ve been on a bit of a rant today but, I just want to offer the benefit of my recent experience in changing my name in the UK.

Firstly: Most people dont know the basic legal requirements. The only document you need is a witnessed deed poll. You will have to explain though. 1/7

Deed Poll: This can be written & printed by you, at home and witnessed by anyone, who is not a blood relative, over the age 18. Have a look at freedeedpoll.org.uk for an easy way to get a legally binding document. No need to enroll it. Nobody has insisted so far
2/7

Photo ID: You should ask the question what they want the ID for. The only proof of your name change required is your deed poll. HMPO & DVLA will want more proof.
If companies want to confirm your identity, they can do it as before you changed your name. It was secure enough! 3/7
