Adding of gender-neutral definition
editGiven the gender-neutral association that "birthing person" has received of late, including in the article I cited, I added a gender-neutral definition. (My understanding, based on that source and others, is that not all trans men who give birth identity as mothers.)--Jerome Frank Disciple (talk) 21:51, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
- I saw that User:Leschnei deleted the item—based on the rule he cited I think that was probably the right call, but it creates a really weird situation that I think requires some further inquiry. This is a term that really has become popularized as part of a push towards gender-neutral language, but this disambiguation page only links to the non-gender-neutral "Mothers". Perhaps this should be turned into an article. I'll do some more research.--Jerome Frank Disciple (talk) 12:49, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
- I quite like the idea of a stand-alone article explaining the use of the term. I note that none of the pages linked to seem to include "birthing person" or "birthing people". But I'm afraid I don't currently have capacity to try to draft anything.
- In the meantime would it be appropriate to add something like:
A gender-neutral term used to include transgender pregnancy
- That page also doesn't include the phrase "birthing people", but perhaps that would be an appropriate place for the reference Jerome Frank Disciple previously added. Mgp28 (talk) 09:01, 14 August 2023 (UTC)
