My wife and I had our son. There won't be another child.
So, to sum: you don't know that it would be meaningful were it you and you aren't going to be impacted by it directly.
What's left?

A bad feeling.....an uneasiness......

Fixed that for you.
It's peculiar, but I think part of a larger, modern problem...no, the notion that our values are diminished by the choices others make. I don't get it, goofy and mistaken as I think the form remains.
I mean, if AB starts wearing high heels tomorrow (as opposed to, say, the usual Wednesday) and insists on being referred to as Nancy Bumble-Bottom (more of a holiday occasion, I'm told) then how does that really effect the rest of us?
Oh, way to fuel aCW's already demented fantasies there TH...
lain: I wish to have it on record that I have never once adorned such footwear and neither have I amended my nomenclature to such...
On Wednesday's I go shopping and have buttered scones for tea thank you so very much...

lain::think: That seems to happen to you a great deal.
Consider the lilies. Take deep breaths and long walks. And when you're tempted to take a great weight onto your shoulders recall who beat you to it. Read the book. It has a happy ending. Do whatever you do with that in mind. You'll live longer and die happier.
Knowing reality and accepting it is a better alternative to living a lie.
Why would you want to die living a lie? I can imagine the worst part of a transgender is when they are on their death bed, with nothing but an imaginary reality they created in their own head.

I wish to further make it clear that I have never once wore a bra, or wished to be a girlie just like my dear ma ma either...

Would you happen to be a lumberjack by any chance?:chuckle:

Else, if broadly, on the topic I'd say meshak is living proof that we're to a very great extent the product (or victim) of our own cognitions...excepting Congress.

No, just an unhappy hairdresser - (Oh darn it, that really would send aCW into a fit...)
Too bad. I knew a few lumberjacks and they were okay.
Had a bad turn in their ranks here a while back after a plague of invisible monkeys descended on the local forests to wreck havoc on their work environment. Blunt axes, hide saws, hurl feces (also invisible, of course) that sort of thing. But the worst were the sudden attacks from behind with commiserate biting and scratching and whatnots.
At least that was the general explanation for their coming out of the woods in that condition.
Got so bad they took to carrying pocket mirrors. Then, if they happened to be walking a trail and heard a noise behind them they'ed whip out the mirror and peer over their shoulders. If they didn't see anything they'd drop axes and run for their lives.
It was a real problem, except for a local axe salesman who turned out to be behind the whole thing.
Such is life. And that's why I'm against any mention of sex on the birth certificate, which seems to me, upon mature consideration, lewd.

I knew you were male. My point being you'll not be filling out one of these forms, and it's likely the vast majority of the new mothers who will be filling out the form won't be bothered by it.

I think I'll stick to just hanging around in bars then...

Did you ever meet Mr. Creasote? He quite had his fill of mints!
I'm always too busy for that kind of thing. I sleep all night and I work all day.

I thought only women could give birth. And... "“What is your DATE OF BIRTH, current AGE and SEX?” the form asks in the section clearly marked “Mother/Parent (Woman Giving Birth).”
One should never underestimate the stupidity of political correctness.

Right. But they wonder if the woman giving birth may identify as male at that point. The whole thing is just vilely absurd. :nono:

So, if I call myself the mother, does that mean I get custody and child-support in the event of a divorce?
:think: Don't know, but if I called you one it's even money I'd be banned.
Also, the mother presumption was thrown under the judicial bus a long time ago. Now it's more about status quo, which still tends to favor the woman who more often is the primary day to day care giver and, as between the two, will disproportionately be in a lesser position as a primary wage earner.
Edit:
Uh-oh...I was just playing with the thread. Now I think I went and killed it. :shocked:
