First baby born without a gender in Canada

Are you kidding? What would imagine life would be like if everyone growing up around you was a boy or a girl, and you were a 'U'. You'd be isolated, ridiculed and probably discriminated against from the word go.

And you think being given an action man as a 5 year old boy is worse?

The parent is trying to have the kids best intentions at heart, but is failing utterly miserably.

People say the same about same sex parents. "Imagine the grief you'll get for having two mums!"

The reality doesn't support that, though.

On the other hand, perhaps life would be much more pleasant for the ~10% of children who fall into LGBTQ+ if some of our rigid expectation of gender roles and norms was... a little less rigid?

Hard to see the downside - might even help lower those male suicide stats.
 
just remember guys, it is 'hate speech' in Canada for you to misgender 'it' (and might well be in Germany once their parliament has bent over too)
 
Parent Kori Doty - a non-binary transgender person who identifies as neither male nor female - aims to allow the child to discover their own gender.

This woman is obviously a ******* fruitcake and not fit to be a parent. Social services should step in and take the baby far away from nutter.

we haven't even mastered the art of the single parent child yet....

i was raised by my mother, and whilst she did a great job as a mother (a strong woman who's integrity i cannot question) i still required the influence of a male role model in my life. fortunately the care system in this country brought me in contact with a good man who in many respects i would regard as my father figure.

the simple fact is children require the influence of both sexes (regardless of which gender they may be) to thrive and decide which figure in their lives they wish to follow (for example my mum is the stereotypical "daddy's girl" and has a much stronger relationship with her father than her mother.

whilst i totally agree that 2 woman are perfectly capable of raising a child, i'd take issue with the idea that they'd be able to do so without an influence of a male role model (the reverse is true for 2 father families).

it's simple, you need both a male and a female influence in a child's development, should they choose to align with one over the other, then that's the point that you nurture that choice.

tl:dr it takes 2 genders to tango.

Kinda like how my gf and I will be testing a 'no processed sugar' thing on our future kids, don't give them a taste for chocolate, candies, or indeed any junk food, from a young age, and see if they develop to reject them and not be addicts like pretty much all us existing adults :D

Isn't that basically why we have so many problems with teen pregnancy and binge drinking in this country? Because it's taboo and forbidden until you turn 16/18, and suddenly you have ~10 years worth of sex and alcohol to catch up on? :p

You're not aware we copy everything America does?

Oh ffs. There are TWO genders. You have to be one or the other, otherwise nature doesn't work! You can't change the facts.

I saw 7 on the dentist forms. One was two spirit, LOL! What on earth is that...
 
The article doesn't seem to give any detail on if the baby was born intersex.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersex

My understanding is that intersex can complicate and/or make virtually pointless giving a gender designation, if the baby is not intersex this seems ideological from a parent who may rightly feel wronged in their designation. However the devil is in the detail as there are examples of designation changing at various stages of development!

What I find bizarre is that was defined from 1990 and had never heard of it until the last few years...

Probably because it wasn't common until recently but now that gender as a social construct is a 'thing' some people wanting to be uber special have decided to promote and popularised 'two spirit'. Also because of 'muh oral traditions' you don't get to fully understand what it is you evil white man, only special people with some tenuous claim of at least 1/16th Native American blood or something along those lines presumably get this special label, for anyone else it is 'cultural appropriation'*.





*well I guess for at least a generation or so, I wouldn't be surprised if, within our lifetimes, we see 'trans-racial' people becoming mainstream and the current SJWs/intersectionalists will be the new conservatives denying that people get to chose their race and should stick to the race they were born with while the new generation claims that 'race' is just a social concept and that they're being oppressed

Trans racial? Can anyone define a race other than the human race.
As I've posted intersex as a known human condition can make male/female division complex!
