You are right, yet the society is struggling exactly with what to add to the passport. And if you think about, why exactly do they need the gender/sex in the passport at all, in the age of biometrics? Isn't this a moot discussion? People fighting about a useless point, that's all what I see.

We're not.
We're struggling with the decision of letting a one handed man identify as two handed and vice versa.
The utter most ridiculousness of this mental gymnastics is calling women "womb carriers", that the sex treated as a baby incubator would have a problem with this is beyond some people apparently.

Qui prodest? Or rather, qui afficitur? One/two handed is not on the passport either, although it would make a much better identifier (for human agents).

I imagine border control find it helpful to have sex on the passport because in 99% of cases it’s an easily observable identifying characteristic.

Dunno about you folks but I haven't flaunted me willy in a long while at the gates. Joke aside, I said "biometrics" - in which a camera and a fingerprint scanner can do way better than feeling my underwear.
