A national court in France has ruled that a man who fathered a child with his wife six years ago cannot now be listed as the child’s mother.
The French news agency RFI reported transgender activists are outraged over the decision.
In the highest court in France, the Court of Cassation in Paris, the judges concluded that “Claire,” the biological father to three children with his wife, isn’t a “mother.”
[L]awyer, Anne-Marie Le Pourhiet, explained that to decide any other way would be to “to transform that child’s personal history into fiction, in the name of adult desire.”
