1. I don't understand. They don't make women remove their make-up.
And 2. not able to be picked up by face recognition software? GOOD! Shouldn't have this Big Brother sick surveillance apparatus in the first place.
My first driver's license, I had red lipstick and black eye shadow and they told me I had to remove it and basically look how I would without make up. Enough to cover blemishes, but I wasn't allowed to look like Dolly Parton either.

So then women have to take off their make up too for ID photographs.

But what does treated equal mean? Treated identically? If you treat males and females identically, that wouldn't really be equal since they are different.

Because the camouflage he wore probably had to be removed with a hammer and chisel.

It means that if a female is required to do A to get a license, then a male should be required to do A too. If a male is prohibited from doing B to get a license then a female is prohibited from doing it to. The law and government requirements should be the same regardless of what is in your pants.

This isn't a difficult concept.

Check the pics I linked earlier. Those women don't even look like the same person in the before and after pics and I bet they aren't told to remove their makeup.

I do agree that these are double-standards, So a cys-woman can wear make-up but not someone who's transitioning?
If its somehow a threat to national security as it makes it harder for surveillance systems to work etc. then make it a blanket policy, Don't just pick on the tranny.

Why does the left view such ridiculous notions as “progress” in society? The sooner this guy gets used to the idea he was born male, not “assigned”, the better he’ll function in this world.

On a related note, mimes nationwide are following this story with great interest.

I don;t care if he was not transitioning, a male should be allowed to wear makeup if a woman is allowed to do so.
