Hunter Schafer just lived through a government-induced plot twist straight out of a bad sitcom. The 26-year-old Euphoria star (and professional stunner) had her passport gender marker mysteriously switched from female to maleโbecause, surprise! The U.S. government is now playing fast and loose with trans rights like itโs a bad reality show.
So, how did we get here? Well, it all started when Hunterโs passport was stolen (rude), and she had to get a new one. Normal enough, right? WRONG. When it arrived, instead of saying “F” for female, it now had a big olโ “M” on itโthanks to a new executive order from President Donald Trump that basically decided gender identity is a two-option menu with no substitutions.
Naturally, Hunter had some thoughts.
Sir, This Is Not What I Ordered
In a TikTok story, Hunter broke it down for the people. She admitted that at first, she didnโt think the policy would actually go into effect. “Our president talks a lot,” she said. “So I was like, Iโll believe it when I see it.” Well, Hunter, youโve seen it. And now, so have we.
Holding up her brand-new, mislabeled passport, she explained that she filled out the application as usual, marking “female” like she has since she was a teenager. But somewhere in the government matrix, the bureaucratic chaos gods decided to hit the gender shuffle button.

Hunter, being a logical person, wondered how this mix-up even happened. “I never changed my birth certificate, so did the passport office suddenly start deep-diving into our baby paperwork? Did they hire a team of forensic genealogists just to mess with trans people?” she joked.
This, however, is not a laughing matterโexcept in the way that everything horrifying eventually turns into dark humor.
She clarified she wasnโt trying to spread panic, just reality-checking the situation. โThis is not a drill. Itโs real, itโs happening, and it doesnโt matter if youโre rich, white, conventionally attractive, or all of the aboveโno oneโs safe from the nonsense.โ
The “M” Stands for “Major Inconvenience”
While Hunter made it clear that she doesnโt particularly care what letter is on her passport, she does care about the awkward chaos it will likely cause when sheโs trying to cross borders. “Pretty sure Iโm about to have some fascinating conversations with airport security,โ she deadpanned. โNothing like an impromptu โGuess My Genderโ game with border patrol!โ
She ended with a mic drop:
โTrans people are beautiful. We exist. Weโre not going anywhere. And honestly? F-ck this administration.โ
The government might think it can edit Hunter Schaferโs identity like a Wikipedia page, but jokeโs on themโsheโs still fabulous.
