WASHINGTON -- Washington state has added a third gender option for drivers licenses, permits and ID cards: Gender X.

The X designation means a gender that is not exclusively male or female, according to the state Department of Licensing.  The rule change was proposed earlier this year to create more consistency with Washington birth certificates that can now list an X.
