Utah bill would prohibit changing birth certificate sex

NaturalLaw and #Science

A #Utah bill would prohibit people from changing the sex listed on their birth certificate.

State Rep. Merrill Nelson said the bill is based in science. ““[A]n individual’s sex is determined at conception by #Chromosomal make-up and is not subject to #Change or #SelfDetermination later in life,” he said.

“This bill is not motivated by any form of ‘#Phobia’ or #Hate,” he said, “but only by a desire to maintain the integrity of the #BirthCertificate and to provide #Clarity and #Consistency to an otherwise ambiguous statute that has produced conflicting results.

A person’s sex is no more subject to #Change than a person’s age. While some may feel younger or look younger, that would not justify a change of the person’s actual #DateOfBirth.”
