Some legal systems also classify people according to sex. Under such systems, a person's legal sex may not correspond to their biological sex, because of errors in documentation, or because of legal sex-change procedures that may be allowed for [[transgender]] or [[transsexual]] people. Some systems allow a third sex category for those who don't want to be legally identified as female or male, either because they have an intersex condition, or because they claim to have a [[gender identity]] that is [[non-binary]]. | Some legal systems also classify people according to sex.
