     Outside of science fiction, give or take some mitochondrial DNA, it still take a man and a women to make a baby, with the man becoming a father and the woman becoming a mother. Legally, in the U.K.<\/a>, this may no longer be considered true.<\/p>\n

“A baby could become the first person without a legal mother if a transgender man wins a historic court battle.<\/p>\n

“Lawyers representing the parent told a judge that he had been biologically able to get pregnant and give birth but had legally become a man when the child was born.<\/p>\n

“The man wants to be identified as the child’s ‘father’ or ‘parent’ on a birth certificate, however a birth registrar told the man the law requires people who give birth to children to be registered as mothers.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

     This is because laws until recently in both the United States and the United Kingdom recognized that “man” meant “biological male”, and that a “father” was a “biological male” who had sired offspring while a “woman” meant a “biological female” with the “mother” being a “biological female” who had had a child. This still is the case for the vast majority of people who haven’t been sold on the contemporary gender madness.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

     But these words have been appropriated so that they have no objective meaning and no purpose except to “smash the gender binary and cis-normativity”. The words which still meant something from the past will be co-opted<\/a> to mean something that they didn’t, and people’s use of the old meaning will continue to be exploited until a rectification of names<\/a>.<\/p>\n

     This woman<\/em> became pregnant via<\/em> intrauterine insemination, meaning that the law would require to believe what is biologically impossible: That a child does not, nor ever had, a mother.<\/p>\n
