A transgender “woman” sued the state of Idaho recently,
claiming the state violated “her” free
speech rights by declining “her” request to change the gender on “her” birth certificate. In truly Orwellian
fashion, “she” complains that Idaho’s “stigmatizing refusal” to issue revised birth certificates is a
violation of First Amendment rights because it “prevents transgender
individuals from accurately expressing their gender,” and further violates their rights “to refrain from speaking by
forcing them to disclose their transgender status and to identify with a gender
that conflicts with who they are.”
A violation of free speech rights? I can say I’m a rainbow trout- or a Ford
Mustang for that matter- but that doesn’t mean I am one. The “lady” in question has changed “her” name on “her”
official identification and documents. The 28-year-old was born male in Hawaii,
and claims that the Aloha State issued “her” a driver’s license that says “she’s”
female, so “she” is gob-smacked that stuffy, old, intransigent Idaho’s Bureau
of Vital Records and Health Statistics won’t change the gender listed on “her”
birth certificate.
Bizarrely, “she” says that by
refusing to issue these revised birth certificates, the state “subjects
[transgender people] to discrimination, privacy invasions, harassment,
humiliation, stigma and even violence.” Quite the opposite. “She” has very
capably done much of that on “her” own.
Whether or not a person believes that
sloughing off a body part here and adding one there later in life can somehow
change the genetic code programming every cell in a person’s body, one’s birth certificate is a simple statement
of fact. It would be a flat-out lie, requiring a forged document and the
outright commitment of fraud to list someone as the opposite of the sex they
obviously, clinically, physically are at the time of their birth. Penis? Check.
Scrotum and testes? Check. It’s a girl!
So much for the scientific method.
Or is “she” trying to say that “she”
somehow “knew,” before “she” was even born, while still in the womb, that “she”
was “female?”
I wonder what would the
pro-abortion crowd have to say about that?
