Exactly. That's why when a woman with short hair comes to my window at the DMV, I tell her to come back in 2 or 3 years after she's grown her hair back to an appropriate female length because I can't issue a license to a woman disguised as a man.

As a government agent, it's my job to enforce the government decreed legal standards of male versus female appearance.

Absurd & sexist.

Exactly. Just like forcing Chase to remove his makeup because a government agent doesn't feel that men should wear makeup.

This is all rather humorous if you consider that not so long ago, the 1970s, it was considered a normal sight for males to wear fairly long scalp hair where they could be confused for a female if viewing from the rear and above the shoulders.
