        Yes, absolutely, not putting the sex of a baby on their birth certificate will absolutely mean that neither the child nor their parents will ever be able to identify themselves by sex EVER AGAIN! Just like not putting a child's race, ethnicity or sexuality does.

        Sensible ppl voted to allow same sex marriages but they couldn’t realise that non-sensible LGBT ppl would go that far. Now 🏳️‍🌈 would push their agenda everywhere

        Next step will be remove the year on their birth certificates as age discrimination.

        Um, no. Sex is also a spectrum. See works by #CordeliaFine. Also, intersex people exist and would really prefer not to have non-therapeutic surgery as infants and children to make them fit into the sex dyad. See also @tonybriffa.
