Binary sex distinctions, as we have now, “fail to recognize the medical spectrum of gender identity,” the report by AmerMedicalAssn says. binary gender identity genderidentity nonbinary
A recent report released by the American Medical Association , the largest group of medical providers in the country, recommended the removal of sex designations from birth certificates by medical providers around the country.
ADVERTISEMENT In addition to circumventing onerous restrictions, the AMA hopes the adoption of its recommendation would prevent discrimination against those whose gender does not match the sex designation of their birth certificate. “We unfortunately still live in a world where it is unsafe in many cases for one’s gender to vary from the sex assigned at birth,” said Jeremy Toler, a delegate from GLMA: Health Professionals Advancing LGTBQ Equality, to WebMD.
ADVERTISEMENT The move has predictably infuriated conservatives. Former Republican Governor of South Carolina and US Ambassador to the UN during the Trump Administration, Nikki Haley responded to the WebMD tweet about the AMA’s recommendation by saying, “This is literally the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard.” The news was also picked up by conservative media outlets like Fox and The Federalist.
