Dont worry, this wont last long. Pretty soon, the government will decide that you cant be trusted to brainwash your child into a genderless collectivist. They'll take and raise the child for you.

So, you're not actually a parent - just a mother. That's what you're saying?

Everyone understands these labels are not mutually exclusive, right? If you're a mother or a father you're ALSO a parent.

What on earth is the big deal here? I can see no absolutely no reason to be upset over this.

Check out the 2nd law of portability.

A passport to the genderless liberal icon of a contrived Michael Jacksonian genome initiated by cultural encouragement.

Any resistance will be crushed by the Jacksonian theme, "They are ignorant." "They are ignorant."
75%+ of the time I have no idea what you're saying, and this is definitely one of those times, but somehow you still manage to make me laugh, ergo.

Thanks!

I used to write briefs for pro se litigants, and the judges had the same problem, but without the humor.

Example:

Judge Jack, you ignorant pr*ck!

When any document is statutorily required to be in the possession of any person, party to any CDA litigation, and that person fails to produce said document when ordered by CDA authority to do so, contumacy is a given.* Thus as in this case where one statute requires a document, and another statute requires it to be submitted, failure to adhere comprises defiance of statutory mandate - twice over.* With regard to the aforesaid, this Board’s acquiescence of statutory detachment abets the failure of the very judiciary machinery upon which this and all other CDA cases rest, and indeed in such manner as to cause subject case to be grounded to estop, subverting any forward judicial progress of this Board’s impartial task of adjudging appellant’s presentment of appeal for proper adjudication of it’s claims against the government.**

Maybe a judge would use a writing similar to this, but addressed to the Governor of Hawaii.
