Washington birth certificates could list sex as M, F or X

In considering a revision of that rule, the department is also proposing the X option to include those who are “intersex, agender, amalgagender, androgynous, bigender, demigender, female-to-male, genderfluid, genderqueer, male-to-female, neutrois, nonbinary, pangender, third sex, transgender, transsexual, Two Spirit, and unspecified.”

Puck Kalve Franta is a volunteer at the Odyssey Youth Center, an organization that supports LBGTQ youth communities. Raised as a woman, now identifying as nonbinary, Kalve Franta said it feels like lying to check “male or female” on a form.

Just when you thought the world couldn't get any crazier....

[dfwgator]

It’s a mixed up, muddled up, shook-up world.

[ZagFan]

WTH is “Two Spirit”?

[robroys woman]

The alphabet people know that the “M/F” thing on birth certificates is a serious problem for their cause, so they are trying to take the issue away for the future.

And there is no limit to the lunacy of Washington state. It’s why I left.

[Zuben Elgenubi]

For the doubly confused, there should be an XX

[robroys woman]

Maybe they need to replace it with “X” and “Y”. It’s all about the chromosomes.

What the hell are xe thinking?

[dfwgator]

Excellent purnt you got there.

[Dilbert San Diego]

Somebody’s first name is Puck?

[V K Lee]

In this respect it would appear to be AOK to state that BO’B is our X-president which is far more nearly correct than calling him our black former president. The boy was never considered a true black in the first place. X is much more appropriate.

[llevrok]

How in the heck does some one know what gender they are at birth other than male or female?

[Zuben Elgenubi]

Excellent purnt you got there.

Puck's got a purnt? No wonder its confused.

[GotMojo]

I demand Y.

[Aevery_Freeman]

Why not X-sex?

Like so many liberal ideas, X-sex sounds like a joke.

[Renkluaf]

Rather than ‘X’ I’d like to see ‘?’.

[Slicksadick]

Instead of X, how about WTF, or ?.

[madprof98]

. . . it feels like lying . . .

And all that matters is how you feel, isn't it, you lunatic?

[piasa]

M = I am male
F = I am female
X = I am the unfortunate spawn of idiots

[caseinpoint]

Or FUBAR might be more accurate.
