This is born (borne?) out of my love of the weirdness of language rather than out of anything else others might mistakenly believe it is...

Aren't they technically blonds rather than blondes? Even in English?

For me, this is like "Alumni Association"; if it were for dogs, it would be the Dog Association, or maybe the Dogs' Association, but not the Dogs Association.

So it's singular: Alumnus Association; or maybe possessive plural, but that would be Alumnorum Association.

Unfortunately you are missing the wider problem with this. Age verification creates a whole new issue of online security and safety. You are basicallu uploading your main sources of ID to unknown verification entities who could either be scammers themselves or get hacked by scammers.

The absence of trans people from the British media is part of the problem. I'd like to offer mentoring to trans people trying to get into journalism, free of charge. Most of my experience is obviously in political commentary, but I might be passably useful in news and other areas.
