Israel recognizes two gay men as child’s biological father
The Jewish Chronicle ^ | 9-16-2013 | JNS (wire service)

In a precedent-setting move, Israel’s Interior Ministry has recognized two men as the biological father of a baby boy.

The baby is the son of Yuval Topper-Erez, a transgender male who gave birth in December 2011. The Interior Ministry initially refused to recognize the child’s father, Matan, as the biological father. But the couple fought for more than a year, and after gaining support from Interior Minister Gideon Saar and Knesset Internal Affairs Committee Chairwoman Member of Knesset Miri Regev, it received recognition.

“While the solution was not ideal, we are still very happy that the child has been registered on both fathers’ IDs and we thank all those who got involved and helped make this happen,” the father, Matan, told Israel Hayom.

Matan added, “I hope that as a result of our case, every same-sex couple will be registered as the parents in their family, it was worth the fight.”

While Israel does not allow same-sex marriages to be performed, due to the lack of a civil marriage option, the state does recognize same-sex unions from abroad. Same-sex couples can also register for cohabitation status, and receive many of the same benefits as heterosexual couples.

Israel is the only Middle Eastern country that recognizes same-sex marriages.

It's not just a question of disagreeing with what they are doing.

It is breathtaking confusion and insanity we're dealing with here.

Furthering the fantasy some have in equating the anus with the vulva.

BTW, this “biological” reference is the “science” Christians are accused of denying.

If they destroy the family and their fertility rate like most of the West has already done, then Israel will be overwhelmed eventually.

Turning a man into a woman so he can have a child sounds pretty goofy to me. There are way too many people on this planet with way too much free time on their hands.

Yuval Topper-Erez, a transgender male

DNA obviously female, after all 'it' gave berth

the child’s father, Matan

DNA obviously male (impregnated the aforementioned female)

I seem to be missing something. Other than the obvious sexual perversion ... a female gave birth after becoming pregnant by a male and the judicial system refused to recognize the male as the father of the child?

I'll remember that the next time anyone insists that Islam is the biggest threat Western civilization faces these days.

One of the reasons its good that the growing ultra-orthadox population are providing a cultural counterforce.

Morally, I disapprove of perversion. However, when it comes to biology, I’m shocked at the degree to which leftists deny science. I should expect broad foolishness from them, but I always imagine that their stupidity is concentrated in economics.
