I'm not exactly sure what the most bizarre part of this story is

The fact that there is a genderless parent who had a child (article doesn't say how) and who refuses to assign a gender to said child on the child's birth certificate...

...or that the parent wants to raise the child in a genderless vacuum and let the child decide its gender later in life...

...or that the family's lawyer spells her name without any capital letters due to a printing error early in her career, and she just ran with it.

That kid is going to be so screwed up.

Yep, that parent might as well start beating the kid up early so it's used to it come school age.

These people, IMO, are mentally ill. There is something deeply disturbed in the human psyche if this can somehow be a viable path forward for your child (or you).

I truly hope no daycare or preschool caters to these lunatics. The last thing we need is a precedent being set whereby 1 year olds are being treated as "non binary entities"

This crap is what is killing common sense today. There are two genders, deal with it. The person who had the baby was a female, do you know how I know? Because only women can have babies, science!

To answer @CommuterBob, the most bizarre part is that this women isn't in an institution and someone had sex with her.

We don't know if the subject of the article is the mother or father. Could be either. There's no mention of giving birth to the child by said person - only that the person is fighting to have the child's gender omitted from a birth certificate.

My parents assigned my gender without consulting me. I prefer to be referred to by the pronoun they or vague.

Don't we have one already: it?

I'm glad that instead of doing critically needed research, there are doctors figuring out how to give mentally unstable people the capability to "insert" a womb into a man's body.

Hope those Brits are prepared to pay more for their shitty universal NHS system! Need more revenues to cover all of these experimental procedures for attention seekers!

Obama promised to fundamentally change America. He accomplished his goal.
