In Canada, the first child of indeterminate sex

In the medical record of the newborn Cyril Atlee, born in November, a place designed to determine the sex of the child was marked with the letter «N», which, according to journalists, could mean «of indeterminate gender».

Binary transgender Cory Doty, which is the child’s mother, insists that the birth certificate of the child was not determine the gender of the baby.

«Yet he has no sense of self-esteem and vocabulary to tell me who he is, for me, is first and foremost a child. I’m trying to give him all the love and support that it could become a complete human being that has no gender restrictions.»

Doty added that people who are assigned a certain gender at birth, often later difficult to have in life when they want to change their sex legally.

«When I was born, the doctors, in the determination of my sex, made assumptions about what I will, and it haunts me throughout life. Their assumptions were wrong, and since I had to change a lot».

According to the BBC, Doty said that the authorities refused to issue a birth certificate of the child without indicating gender, so she filed in the case of a lawsuit.
