Australia reverses landmark no-sex ruling

Sydney – An Australian who made world headlines by being officially declared neuter vowed Thursday not to surrender the “sex not specified” identification document authorities in Sydney now claim they issued in error. The Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages said the certificate was invalid because new legal advice was that the registrar may “only issue a recognized detail certificate or a new birth certificate following a change of sex in either male or female gender.”
