The destruction of rationality and logic continues unabated.

Err, what about these:

[okie01]

If gender is merely a matter of attitude, why not speciation?

Hey, everybody, I'm a duckbill platypus.

No, really.

[brooklyn dave]

OOH I wonder if we'll start to see bearded men with big boobs in NYC????

[RexBeach]

Marrying goats is right around the corner!

[DTogo]

Can Eminem change his race to Black, and Michael Jackson change his to White?

[lews]

Perhaps this is a back door attempt to allow gay marriage. If this change goes into effect it will be impossible to tell who is male and female without performing a strip search.

[tdewey10]

Ridiculous. Gender is not "constructed"

[msnimje]

Is this legalizing Gay Marriage?

[P-Marlowe]

New York City is moving forward with a plan to let people alter the sex on their birth certificate even if they have not had sex-change surgery.

Doesn't this mean that boys can now change their birth certificates and join the girls high school athletic teams and shower with them after the games?

[redlocks322]

It's too bad that only 5 years after 9/11 - the very city hit the hardest would enact such nonsense. You would think that the people in decision making positions would be on their knees every day praying to God and giving thanksgiving that they are still alive instead of walking around proudly making a mockery of the human race.

“Somebody with a beard may have had breast-implant surgery. It’s the permanence of the transition that matters most.”

If that's the case, what does that oh-so-permanent DNA say.

[Petronski]

If approved, the new rule would put New York at the forefront of . . . queer moonbatty kookdom.

[maryz]

affidavits from a doctor and a mental health professional laying out why their patients should be considered members of the opposite sex, and asserting that their proposed change would be permanent.

Sounds OK to me, as long as the doctor, mental health professional and patient are immediately fitted with strait jackets and committed to nearest loony bin!

Great! I've always wanted to be Marklar!

Reg: Furthermore, it is the birthright of every man —
Stan: Or woman.
Reg: Why don't you shut up about women, Stan? You're putting us off.
Stan: Women have a perfect right to play a part in our movement, Reg.
Francis: Why are you always on about women, Stan?
Stan: I want to be one.
Reg, Francis: What?
Stan: I want to be a woman. From now on, I want you all to call me "Loretta".
Reg: Wha'?
Loretta: It's my right as a man.
Judith: Well, why do you want to be Loretta, Stan?
Loretta: I want to have babies.
Reg: You want to have babies?!
Loretta: It's every man's right to have babies if he wants them.
Reg: But... you can't have babies.
Loretta: Don't you oppress me!
Reg: I'm not oppressing you, Stan, you haven't got a womb! Where's the fetus gonna gestate? You gonna keep it in a box?
[Stan/Loretta starts to cry.]
Judith: Here! I-I've got an idea. Suppose that you agree that he can't actually have babies, not having a womb — which is nobody's fault, not even the Romans' — but that he can have the right to have babies.
Francis: Good idea, Judith. We shall fight the oppressors for your right to have babies, brother. Sister, sorry.
Reg: Wh-what's the point?
Francis: Wha'?
Reg: What's the point of fighting for his right to have babies when he can't have babies?
Francis: It is symbolic of our struggle against oppression.
Reg: It's symbolic of his struggle against reality.

Separating anatomy from what it means to be a man or a woman, New York City is moving forward with a plan to let people alter the sex on their birth certificate even if they have not had sex-change surgery.

This is the (il)logical conclusion of allowing sex-change operations. It's no less insane than homosexual "marriage," and not surprisingly, it will enable "marriages" between men or between women.

[Jibaholic]

All this left wing wackiness reminds me of Star Wars when Obi Wan Kenobi faces Vader: "You can't possibly win Darth, strike me down now and I shall grow more powerful than you can possibly imagine."

The more the left gets their way, the more they make everyone realize that the wide gate does indeed lead to destruction. We need to be silent on these issues. If we give people Judeo-Christian values without the Judeo-Christian God, then we make it safe for them to rebel.

The single best thing we can do to win Christian convers (which means, ultimately, Republicans), is to give the left enough rope to hang themselves.

This does not apply to civil rights issues, such as abortion.

Law of unintended comsweuences - now boys can get the Title IX scholarships they have been quoted out of and now MANY set-aside, affirmative action and female only scholarships are FAIR GAME...

[Right Wing Assault]

I want to move to NY and register as Tri-sexual or possibly Quadra-sexual. Can I do that? Next year I might want to be Penta-sexual. Or maybe even Sexa-sexual. Ooh, that sounds fun.
