The Evergreen Health Medical Center in Kirkland may change the name of its Family Maternity Center. Some staff claim “maternity” is not gender-inclusive enough for “birthing people” who do not identify as women.
According to a memo obtained by the Jason Rantz Show on KTTH, some claim the Family Maternity Center “does not emanate inclusivity.” They argue that “all types of people give birth.” Consequently, the staff at the center are engaged in meetings to come up with a new, more inclusive name.
The memo announcing the name change idea was sent by four EvergreenHealth leaders. They explained that staff members and patients reached out with concern that the Family Maternity Center was too centered on women. This needed to change.
“It has come to Leadership’s attention from both staff and patients that our name, Family Maternity Center, does not emanate inclusivity. All types of people give birth,” the memo claims. “People who identify as women give birth. People who identify outside the gender binary give birth. People with non-traditional family structures give birth. Not all our birthing patients identify as moms or with maternity care. The healthcare system in general and reproductive health in particular have a long way to go to become truly inclusive of all this variety. How exciting that Evergreen’s core vision is to create an inclusive community health system!”
The meeting featured one of the memo’s authors, RN Jacquiline Blanco, taking a leading role. She called the meeting a “brave face conversation,” which she said is the new term for “safe space.”
According to Blanco’s LinkedIn profile, her goal is to “empower womxn, girls, birthing persons, female-identifying and non-binary folks through the provision of holistic and compassionate women’s healthcare.” It came as little shock when she pushed for the name change.
“I also want to just establish that I really strongly believe changing a name to gender-inclusive language really does affirm our commitment to the care of the whole family and inclusive language can really support practices of awareness to the needs of all families, which are extremely varied,” Blanco said.
One staff member claimed more than just women give birth.
“I think a suggestion can be Evergreen Family Birth Center. I do have a hard time with the maternity name as the Family Maternity Center. And again, not taking away from people who feel that women only have this magical superpower of giving birth. I feel that all types of people have this superpower. And I don’t think that these people, who are also referred to as ‘birthing people,’ should feel less than.”
“One staff member claimed more than just women give birth”
Prove it
These people are insane
How about, the whelping box?
“These people are insane”
If this was a case of just a few screwballs on the loose, I could write it off. But there are LOTS of these idiots out there.
I just want to get to the end before they destroy everything.
Simple
The first time a man has a baby let us know
Man as in male anatomy
These institutions hire and retain people of their own ideology. There’s no one in the room that will stand up and say “NO”.
‘Hospital Staff’?
Who?
The Janitor and the maids?..................
They say follow the science.
Well why it is so hard to understand, that there are XX and XY chromosome people, and only XX people can bear children, with the help of XY chromosome people.
If phrases like "his uterus" makes perfect sense to you just like "her penis" ... you might be a Democrat. LOL
These are the people who provide your healthcare..........for a small fee, of course...........
“All types of people give birth,”
All types of pregnant women give birth.
Nothing else is biologically possible.
Period.
L
This is what the end of a civilization looks like.
I’m bored with sexual weirdos and their apologists...
“These are the people who provide your healthcare..........for a small fee, of course...........”
No, an extremely large fee.
It’s political theater for people who are dead inside. Sexual weirdos stirring the pot ...
So what... let them complain...if they don’t like working there, leave...
Morons... capitulating to crazy is why we are where we are.
Toxic “feminism” is destroying the world.
Now called The Fruits and Nuts Center…
Ignorant hospital staff should be fired. And if they think a biological male can give birth, their licenses should be yanked.
Why would birthing persons, female-identifying, and non-binary folks need women's healthcare?
This would be a good question for Judge Brown/Jackson. We could ask her if women give birth? I wonder how she would answer such a question.
