The words “mother” and “father” will be removed from U.S. passport applications and replaced with gender neutral terminology, the State Department says.
“The words in the old form were ‘mother’ and ‘father,’” said Brenda Sprague, deputy assistant Secretary of State for Passport Services. "They are now ‘parent one’ and ‘parent two.’"
A statement on the State Department website noted: “These improvements are being made to provide a gender neutral description of a child’s parents and in recognition of different types of families.” The statement didn't note if it was for child applications only.
The State Department said the new passport applications, not yet available to the public, will be available online soon.
I post these things because they are news reports that you might not get to see by reading the Mainstream media news. Not all of them are controversial, but I can always depend on some of you to complain.
We are now accommodating the same sex adoptive parents and are showing how compassionate we are. Aren't you pleased????
