Swiss Sanity

Zero Hedge links to an Associated Press article which reports Swiss authorities have rejected the idea of a third option, in addition to male and female, on government forms.

The Swiss government on Wednesday rejected the idea of introducing a third gender option or no-gender option for official records, a position which differs from that of some neighboring countries. 

“The social preconditions for the introduction of a third gender or for a general waiver of the gender entry in the civil registry currently are not there,” it said.

The Swiss have been going their own way for centuries, clear that they need not follow the crowd. The DrsC spent the better part of a month there seven years ago; we found it a very pleasant, beautiful place that doesn’t much accommodate “outliers.”
