GP practice asks parents if their BABY is trans: Outrage over ‘insane’ gender options on patient registration form
Due to the registration form, which asks parents if their infants are trans or non-binary, a GP office has attracted vehement criticism.
The Birmingham clinic furthermore gives parents the option of reporting their child’s sex as “other” or “not stated.”
The Woodgate Valley Health Center requested that new patients of all ages who wanted to register use the form, not only babies.
The form is not covered by official NHS guidelines. As an alternative, each operation is free to add more gender options to its forms.

A woman took to Twitter and added a screenshot of the registration form presented to a friend who had recently given birth. Among the gender options, the surgery offers “male (including trans man)”, “female (including trans woman)”, “non-binary”, “other (not stated)” or “not stated”

The post sparked a backlash among social media users, with one claiming “that’s insane.”
Another labeled the move “out of control.”
A third user commented, “How on earth can a baby express an opinion about their ‘gender identity’?”
One account also criticized NHS England for ‘disgraceful gaslighting’, adding: ‘More gaslighting and nowhere for us women to have our own gender category.’

Woke language changes have swamped NHS communications in recent months. Some of the above examples are from national NHS communications, while others are used by individual hospitals
In a crackdown on ‘harmful terminology’ in science this year, members of the Ecology and Evolutionary Biology (EEB) Language Project – founded by scientists in the US and Canada – published a list of the ‘top 24 harmful terms’ used in science are used. This includes replacing the terms ‘invasive’ and ‘male/female’
Woodgate Valley Health Center told The Sun the form was a “standard new patient registration form for each new patient.”
It “includes, but is not limited to, parents registering a newborn,” they added.
Woke language changes have swamped NHS communications in recent months.
Earlier this year, Health Secretary Steve Barclay ordered an urgent inquiry into new ‘inclusive’ guidelines telling NHS staff to treat all patients as gender neutral.
The 16-page document was produced by researchers who received a ?164,964 government grant to study how clinicians can improve their communication with LGBT patients.
They presented their findings as evidence-based guidance that they could follow.
But health experts have warned that de-generating medical advice can be dangerous because it overcomplicates and obscures vital health messages.
Last year, the GGD also came under fire for removing the word ‘woman’ from its advice pages about menopause and ovarian and uterine cancer.
In January Nimco Ali, the government’s former czar for combating violence against women, warned that the NHS has been ‘seriously compromised’ by gender ideology.
In a foreword to a new report from the think tank Policy Exchange, Ms Ali said the content suggested the health service was “seriously compromised by an ideology that attacks the rights of women and girls”.
