The Inter-American Court of Human Rights Advisory Opinion OC-24/17 is a landmark decision in the recognition of trans and gender diverse identities: it ruled that States must provide mechanisms to change the name and/or sex/gender markers in public records and identity documents based on the applicant’s self-determination. Although by 2021 this decision provides the most extensive protection on the recognition of gender identity in International Human Rights Law, it legitimizes the source of its problem: the registration cis-tem of a sex/gender marker assigned at birth based on the appearance of our external genitalia. Given this situation, this research presents a queer reading of the OC-24/17 that analyzes the effects of sex/gender markers on the right to gender identity and, consequently, on other rights such as private life and free development of personality. Therefore, we assert that the most suitable solution according to queer theory and the American Convention on Human Rights is the removal of sex/gender designations on public records and identity documents. To this end, we argue that this marker (i) limits our gender autonomy, (ii) exposes certain people to discrimination and violence and (iii) violates the right to informational self-determination. Moreover, after applying a proportionality test, we noticed that the sex/gender marker is not an appropriate measure for any of the purposes that States, in principle, seek to achieve.
