    Right to change legal gender becomes ambiguous.
    From 1908 until 1933, transvestite passes were handed out to trans and cross-dressing Germans as a de facto recognition of their gender identity or expression. However there were no known provisions that legally changed one's gender. These were revoked when the Nazis came to power.
