Like I've said before - passports are little fucking red prisons - because without one you're utterly fucked.
Scotch Piper?
Ive been waiting for this one...how hilarious is this going to be when you turn up in the middle east with your gender neutral passport.
UK's refusal to grant gender-neutral passports could be ruled 'unlawful' by High Court
I understand that there's a shitload of good mountain biking in IranWhy would a gender neutral person want to go to the middle East anyway?
Why would a gender neutral person want to go to the middle East anyway? The only people that go are people that are going to kill people or make as money as they can and shit on as many people on possible.
I for one would rather live in a country that gives people excessive rights rather than a country that excessively limits people's rights.

Heh, calling Isrealis hospitable. Good one.Not sure if you've noticed, but Dubai is a pretty popular holiday destination these days? Not that interested myself, but know a few people who have.
Just to light the blue touch paper, I'd be far more interested in returning to Tel Aviv for a few days, as that was a beautiful city, full of incredibly hospitable people. Not sure on their idea of being gender neutral however, as I didn't ask when I was over there.
I would also suggest turning up to any US Airport that isn't in California may be a trifle tricky with a gender neutral passport - as I don't think the ESTA form includes any gender info other than the two we are aware of.

My point being more why would someone want to go to a country where being LBQTDRISODF+++---QPRXXXOOO is punishable by death?
Even though I'd dispute your numbers - is it OK to be at risk of death because you're a small minority then? Or are you being glib about it just because it's a minority that you dislike?To be fair that only really affects a (very loud and shouty) 0.00005% of the population.

That's fine - but your lack of condemnation of the backwards idiocy is glaring. It's like you're sat there in your pants going "yep, I fucking hate them and it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside that there are places that they just can't go because of who they are"...I don't see it as being any different to how Westerners aren't really advised to go to Papua New Guinea or some of the more remote islands in Indonesia as you are likely to be eaten, or many places in South America as you are likely to be shot. If you aren't welcome somewhere, don't go there? But if you are, fill your boots.

Just because he doesnt decry it doesnt mean he supports it in any way shape or form.
So the question is - what is "within reason" for you?it is far simpler than that for me - i.e it's their country, they can do what they like (within reason)
Continued refusal to decry an abhorent behaviour prompts the obvious question: why not?Just because he doesnt decry it doesnt mean he supports it in any way shape or form.
I don't understand your resistence to doing so. I've asked the question again.So if I don't explicitly condemn throwing gay people off a tower block that means I think it's a great idea? What kind of fuckwitted backwards logic is that?

Why are you so reluctant to say "of course I'm not a giant cunt"?
In my experience, people who don't simply rule it out when challenged tend to be giant cunts. But hey ho, I'm not going to labour the point any more...
Still refusing to rule it out? Fair enough.I didn't condemn cannibalistic tribes of PNG or people in South America who get a bit shooty - I'm guessing you think I approve of those two as well?
