    Just in case the child (supposedly) desides to change their mind about what their gender is after birth, because the insane parent (the other parent didn't have a say) surely didn't coach their child to think in such a way.

    Also, just to over-complicate terms, just because. :P

      Don't you know the midwife randomly flips a coin when the baby's born and declares it a boy if tales or heads a girl?

      Not exactly, the current wokeness is that sex is a "spectrum", because some people are born intersex. And there is supposedly a way to "transition" into a non-binary sex as well, so they must believe there's more than just the 2 that are "assigned".

      Also, because they aren't that creative and want to appropriate terms from the intersex community.

      To account for intersex conditions, I think.

      Especially conditions which result in ambiguous genitalia.

      Late respond: it was a term they appropriated from the intersex community. Just as they do with many other things.

        Yeah, I'm sure pretty it was used mostly for those who have ambiguous sex but I'm not sure. I just know it came from their community, and gender ideology took it from them.
