Our linguistic overlords sometimes offer us options. Per Democrat rising star James Talarico, women are to be called “neighbors with a uterus.” When referring to mothers in particular, we are supposed to say “lactating individuals.” Those who find that phrase comically awkward can instead say “gestating parent.”
The New York Post reports:
A woke new bill erases the terms “mother” and “father” from state child custody and parental laws — a gender-neutral rewriting that’s expected to spark a flood of similarly clunky legislation.
“Mother” would be replaced with “gestating parent” while “father” becomes “non-gestating parent” or “parent” in family court along with in domestic and education law, under the legislation, passed this week by state Democrats.
The legislation was sponsored by State Senator Luis Sepulveda (D-Bronx) and Assemblywoman Amy Paulin (D-Westchester). Their fellow moonbat Kathy Hochul can be expected to sign it into law.
Note that woke social engineers intend to obliterate not only motherhood but also fatherhood. The word “paternity” has been struck from the Newspeak Dictionary and replaced by “parentage.” Even deadbeat dads face degendering; rather than “putative fathers,” they must now be called “alleged parents.”
LGBT militants can rejoice in yet another victory handed to them by their liberal champions.
