Political correctness and concepts of "equality" have made us lose all contact with reality.
I am beginning to wonder if this can ever be reversed.
Woe is us.

http://www.westernjournalism.com/ne...thers-birth-certificates/#SjqU6GbkwmGCGHx5.99According to recent reports, transgender mothers may now declare their gender to be male when filling out their children’s birth certificate forms. Despite the fact that these individuals are obviously female given their ability to give birth, the New York City Health Department nonetheless wants to allow pregnant women living as men to declare their preferred gender on the official form.
“What is your DATE OF BIRTH, current AGE and SEX?” new mothers are now asked.
The convoluted question is contained in a section for the “Mother/Parent (Woman Giving Birth)” to complete, revealing that even the attempt at inclusivity ultimately recognizes that only a woman can give birth.
Similarly, a baby’s father is also prompted to choose his preferred gender.
Though the new policy has elicited a significant amount of criticism, gay advocacy leaders like Lambda Legal’s Susan Sommer see it as a positive step.
“A form that is respectful and doesn’t make assumptions about sex or gender of people parenting children is fine to me,” she said.
Still, plenty of social media users found the idea preposterous.
