I saw a post on my newsfeed about New York City joining Oregon, Washington and New Jersey in allowing a non-binary designation on birth certificates. Yes, a third option for your gender. It is for those folks that don't identify as male or female. The new rule in New York also removed the requirement for a Doctor to change your designation. The reason for that can only be assumed. I'm assuming it's because a trained medical professional has the amazing ability to tell male from female, but no ability to identify a third option. I also know the reason for that, because there is no third option! I've certainly pointed this out in the past, but gender really is a binary thing. Ying and Yang, male and female. X and Y. It's been that way since the very beginning and the DNA evidence proves it beyond any shadow of a doubt. That being well established I am still puzzled by this third option.
I am confused by Category X. That's what it can read on your birth certificate.
A birth certificate is a legal document identifying you as a human being. It is the bona-fide proof that you were born. That in itself speaks volumes about the system we are dealing with. Yes we take it for granted, but imagine, for just a minute if you can, a world where you need documentation to prove you exist! You are living in that world. This document is issued when you are born. This document is a recording of facts. The time, place and weight when you were born is recorded. Your footprints are placed on the document. And yes, that document says whether you are a male or female of the species we call homo-sapiens. That document has nothing to do with your personal feelings or the personal feelings of the parents. Fact is, you don't really have an opinion on what sex you identify as because, well, you're a newborn! And for that very reason any " changes " made to that document should come in the form of an addendum. When you are old enough to decide you want to be an " x " or whatever. Then, and only then, should that document modified and codified to reflect that change all the while maintaining the chain of documentation. Think of it as a chain of custody. I'm thinking if you have to be 18 to vote, you should have to be at least 18 to vote on your gender as well. And yes, it would take a vote for the simple reason, it's a choice. I should think the liberal people supporting all of this gender identifying stuff would agree, they love choice! Regardless of fact, it's a choice.
Setting aside this question of what you want to identify yourself as, gender is a biological marker. That's all it is, a scientific fact. How can a parent or legal guardian, or anyone else determine what a new born wants to be? That new born is whatever gender it was born as. How is that not obvious? How can so many people be duped into approving of such a ridiculous thing? I'm talking about the original birth certificate here. For thousands of years fathers wished for a son, and mothers wished for daughters, sometimes they were disappointed. Thing is they got one or the other despite that disappointment. But now we are deciding to label that child non-binary? I'm struggling to understand the logic behind this. We are talking about what is physically. We are not recording what we wished this child to become, or what we wish that child was, we are recording what gender that child
Yes there is a disorder where you can be born with both sex organs. It's a birth defect.
The big question is why? Why would you insist on placing your new born in category X? Is there something inherently wrong with being male or female? If we can change the designation of gender, can we also change the designation of race? Why not? I'm always hearing about the disadvantaged minorities. I'll just change that designation on my child's birth certificate and save them from that! Makes as much sense as changing their gender doesn't it. Personally I think they are going to notice, sooner or later. And then the question to Mom, why am I in category X, am I different than everyone else? If I wasn't born, by the legal evidence presented, as a boy or girl what am I? I want to hear that explained to a three or four year old. Well dear, when you get old enough you can just decide for yourself, Mommy and Daddy couldn't tell. The doctors couldn't tell either so you are " special. " Yeah, okay. That ought to make things clear enough. Do you take this " category X " homo sapien as your life partner? Neither bride nor groom shall you be. Well I'm assuming again. I guess a cat x could marry a cat x then the result would be a double xx right? We do need to add a member to the birthing team, a medium. That way we could just record the proper gender designation when they are born, avoiding cat x altogether! Oh wait, we already know what gender they are, No we don't! Well, we know what we want, we don't know what the baby wants, cat x it is.
If this whole blog sounds stupid there is a reason for that. It's a stupid subject! Non-binary? Bunch of idiots! That's the bottom line here. And my final word.
