Ministry of Healthcare of Ukraine to officially introduce «transgender» notion
The document which apart from traditional «male» and «demale» also foresees «hermaphrodite», was discovered by journalist Orest Sokhar. He shared his discovery on «Facebook» page.
«Within the framework of introducing family medicine, the Ministry of Healthcare is currently reconciling the Declaration on the choice of the first aid doctor. Well, the line «Gender» has three positions: M/F/N the last one meaning NO. There are just a few transgenders in our country, while the medicine in Ukraine is confronted with an incredible number of other problems… still the Ministry has chosen its priorities.»
Herewith the journalist expressed his concern about the fact that for the sake of tolerance Ukraine is likely to discard such definitions as «mother» and «father»: «If we go on like that drawing on the «world values», we will soon prohibit calling parents as father and mother, since gay couples do not have these notions.»
Sokhar laid an emphasis on the document having been already approved by the Minister: «I want to stress that the document has been okeyed by the Minister and is undergoing formal agreement with the subordinates of Ms Ulyana.»
