Gender far from Simple 性別之疑惑

6/4/2009

0 Comments

 

On the April 6 SafeHouse gathering, we watched a TV documentary about an American woman who has undergone transgender hormonal manipulation to become a man but has not completed gender assignment surgery, ie, he still has his female reproductive organs intact.  He was later married to his wife who could not reproduce because of previous hysterectomy.  Eventually, the couple decided to have a baby and he was the one who went pregnant!  According to local federal laws, “mother” must be the biological mother of the baby, that means on the birth certificate of the baby, he was labelled as the “mother” and his wife was the “father”!  The incidence quickly drew media attention and raised many deep and important questions.  My understanding of take-for-granted notions such as “male/female”, “husband/wife”, “father/mother”, etc., was widened.

SafeHouse is a free support group service of Unitarian Universalists Hong Kong.  The SafeHouse is for people with religious doubts and in religious transitions, and meets on the first and third Mondays of each month at "Rainbow HK," Jordan.
 

四月六日「心靈休息室」聚會,我們看了一集電視記錄片,講述在美國有一位少女,以激素手段變換性別成男性,但保留女性生殖器官。他後來與一位接受過子宮切除術的女子結婚。當兩夫婦決定要小朋友,便由丈夫懷孕!由於當地州法律訂明「母親」必須是嬰孩的生母,所以在他們孩子的出生證書上,他是「母親」,他的妻子竟然是「父親」!事件吸引了廣泛傳媒及社會關注,及帶出一大堆有趣、重要、而深刻的問題。這片子及之後的小組討論擴闊了我對一些理所當然的觀念的理解:例如「男、女」、「夫、妻」、「父、母」等。

「心靈休息室」是「尋道會」的支援小組服務,適合宗教懷疑者及宗教轉變者,每月第一及第三個週一晚於佐敦「香港彩虹」聚會。
