DC Transgender Law Allows Birth Certificate Revision:
"A new law in Washington DC allows individuals to change the sex designation on their birth certificate based on the gender they personally identify as, no matter what sexual organs they actually have.
It's called the Marriage Officiant Amendment Act of 2013 and it repeals the old law that requires a surgical sex-change operation for an official gender switch on an individual's birth certificate.
Now, people who want to change their assigned sex in the eyes of the state only need to provide a written request and a signed statement from a healthcare provider."
