At the end of 2021, biology got voted out of parliament. Every party in Parliament (yes - even National & ACT) voted for a law that renders birth certificates as meaningless and which continues the relentless push to nullify biological sex and the scientific accuracy of male and female. But for some reason, Maori 'identifying' as Tahine, Whakawahine and Whakatane won't be allowed. But doesn't self-identification mean that there are no limits on the terminology? There's already 112 genders - apparently. Why not more?
