If Moms Are 'Birthing People,' What Do We Call Dads on Father's Day?

If moms are "birthing persons" then what are dads on Father's Day?

Americans are being bombarded with ads for gifts for that special day for fathers. Should I say "sperm contributors" in preparation for our complete capitulation to the woke? The "sperm contributor" in your life may want that leather chair, or aftershave he'll never use, a box of fine Maduro cigars, a fly-fishing shirt, or perhaps Orwell's "1984" and a bottle of Glenmorangie 18 to wash it down. And on the special day of the gifts, he might want to grill something for the children and the "birthing person" who brought them into the world.

That's what mothers are called now, by the federal government, some scientists and by the left: "birthing persons."

Orwell was right, the first thing they do is ratchet down the language to squeeze the life out of your mind. President Joe Biden's federal budget proposal in a section on infant mortality rates officially calls mothers birthing people. As does the Harvard Medical School, the National Institutes of Health and other agencies. Democrats use "birthing persons" but sometimes hedge their bets and also use "mothers." The stress must hurt really bad.

So, rather than call people stupid fools for not applauding this trend, I decided on a radical plan: asking people what they thought of it.

Going back to the 40s, identifying females as "Birthing People" (or some similar definition) has been a standard trope in most dystopian novels. This definition implies that the sole, or at least primary, function of a female is to procreate. The male contribution is not mentioned because it is irrelevant to the birthing person. It implies that any male, or any sperm for that matter, will fulfill the function.

Piggy Banks? Can't call them sperm donors because that might offend some mentally ill woman that identifies as a male.

Now that the country has celebrated bleeding birthing people of all genders on Birthing Person's Day, families are gearing up for Lawnmowing Person's Day.

Well, I'll stick to the basics.  The female gives birth and is the mother and the man that impregnated that female is the father.

I'm sick to death of the political correctness ridiculousness.  If it offends you, so be it!

My inclination is that this whole "birthing people" brouhaha is something some pranksters on the Internet brewed up to stir up controversy, and it's working.

And to answer the question of what to call fathers on Father's Day... these days? In too many cases, they pretend the father doesn't exist.

Wait I forgot the teachings of the reeducation camp, what do you call a father in todays world? Oppressors and lord help them if they happen to be White.

According to FemiNational Socialist doctrine, all sex is rape and thus all men are rapists.
