I think its less a data point they want for checking id (although I did know a dude who got busted trying to use his sister’s ID while underage. She had short hair and a gender neutral name, but he had a mustache. Otherwise he looked plausibly like the photo, but there was that pesky F on the liscence.)
I think its more a matter of having it as a search criteria for narrowing database searches. Which logically should make it more useful as a ‘gender presentation’: M/F/other.
Got surveilance tape of a clearly masculine perp? 5’8, caucasian, blond hair, dark beard? You dont want your search clogged up with all the AMAB, who dont match the photo because they’ve transitioned, and missing all the AFABs whove started HRT and now have/ could have a beard.
I know plenty of girls with full beards. And plenty of guys who can’t grow them. It’s not common, sure, but a female perp could just get a fake beard if we go by the gender presentation on a license.

Sex: yes
Gender: no
angry Ace noises
why does a license even need sex, though? like when is it ever used as proof of identity by dropping your pants?
It gets lonely
Sometimes I find mine cuddling with my CC.
look at mister goosmoos here, thinks licenses should be condemned to never fuck
they can handle it themselves like the rest of us if they get the urge
my license ain’t got hands is mine defective
No, just expired.
see what happens when you don’t let your license fuck?
The license already has a picture. Neither sex nor gender provide any value in identification, and have lead to misidentification of cis people too.

I stand by my statement.
