Patch: Historic First Officially Genderless American
First there was Pat, a joke on Saturday Night Live. Now we have Patch, who is also a joke, but you had better not laugh at him because that would be a thought crime. Patch is America’s historic first officially genderless person.
A Portland student has become the first American to gain legal designation as “genderless”, following a ruling by a Multnomah County judge. …
The 27-year-old formerly known as Patrick Abbatiello, now legally designated agender, also got legal approval to change names, now going only by “Patch,” no surname. That name also serves as a pronoun, Patch explained to the local NBC affiliate this week.
“Even gender-neutral pronouns don’t feel as if they fit me,” Patch said. “I feel no identity or closeness with any pronouns I’ve come across. What describes me is my name.”
However, 2 + 2 = 4, and “Patch” is a male, no matter how weird, and no matter what the depraved social engineers running the courts in Oregon might demand we pretend.
On a tip from Bodhisattva.
