    New York City birth certificates get gender-neutral option

    New York City birth certificates get gender-neutral option

    I wonder how many legislative hours went into "solving" this problem?


    The birth certificate should ask for sex rather than gender.

    A new law in New York City makes it easier for transgender and non-binary New Yorkers to match their birth certificate to their gender identity without needing a signed affidavit from a healthcare provider.

    The law, which went into effect Tuesday, also creates a new label, "X," to reflect a non-binary identity.


    "Transgender and gender non-conforming New Yorkers deserve the right to choose how they identify and to live with respect and dignity," Mayor Bill de Blasio said in a statement released Monday.


    "Our city respects your gender identity and the right to have it affirmed on your birth certificate," de Blasio's office echoed in a Tuesday tweet.

    Under the law, individuals born in New York City can apply to have the gender marker on their birth certificate changed by submitting a notarized application stating that the revision is to reflect their "true gender identity and is not for any fraudulent purpose."

    Save money. Take the original certificate put an X through what gender is marked, and then check the other or scribble whatever you wish there.

    50 years from now they'll have M / F on the birth certificate and laugh at this time where some questioned it.

    Did you hear Cuomo talking about how NY will be the most Progressive state in the US. Then rambled off all the tissues issues that the Left has as a Wish list. Socialized Medicine. Free Education. More Regulations on Businesses. 15 dollar minimum wage. Higher Taxes for the Rich. Just to name a few.

    The Demos in Illinois want the same thing. Oh and for People with Pensions to walk away from their pensions. That is the new twist in their failed ideology.

    And NY is bleeding off population as people flee those crazy ideas. Same in California.

    Yep. I left California at my first opportunity.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

    Although if we got ourselves into a big war where we don't belong and I had a son turning 18 and being required to register for selective service I'd start calling him my daughter, pretty fast.

    Maybe this is how we go extinct. We become too "intelligent " to tell one gender from another at mating time. LOL. BTW, can I also pick my race, the height and weight I identify with and a Bradley Cooper face? Can I identify as rich even if I'm not? Think of it. If people could choose their race we might see white corner backs i the NFL again. LOL

    I wish it were that simple. Unfortunately, we're going to try and pass this nonsense instead:

    'Gay man knocks up boyfriend'

    Well if this isn’t the freakiest thing I’ve seen since the last freakiest thing I ever saw. A gay man’s transman boyfriend is pregnant with their child. They live in an old bus and are here to tell you their story of true love. If only Nora Ephron were alive to pen the screenplay. To be clear, this is the video equivalent of stepping in something squishy and checking to make sure it is, in fact, smelly dog $#@!. You have to look. You know you’re going to look.

    This is Democrats showing their lacking intelligence. They definitely need the younger generations confused. If they are confused as to what they came into the world as. Just think how much the Demos can confuse them with everything else.
