“On the first day of Trump’s presidency, he signed an executive order to declare only two genders recognized by the state, male and female, assigned at birth,” she explained, adding that as a result, “the Bureau of Consular Affairs has frozen passport applications requesting a gender marker change or renewals or new applications with the gender marker deferring from an applicant’s gender assigned at birth.”.
Adding that it’s been nearly a decade “since I changed my gender marker,” she said she believes the incident “is a direct result of the administration our country is currently operating under.”.
Explaining that her gender markers were first changed in her teens, she said her first issued driver's license and passports following have “all been female since then.”.
Schafer said her post was not meant to “create drama” or drum up sympathy but instead to highlight the “reality of the situation” and let people know that “it’s actually happening.”.
Euphoria star Hunter Schafer has revealed her newly issued passport now lists her sex as male.
