On Sunday, Speaker Nancy Pelosiâs Democratic majority proposed to eliminate âfather, mother, son, daughter, brother, sisterâ and all other language deemed insufficiently âgender-inclusiveâ from House rules. They would be Âreplaced with terms like âparent, child, sibling, parentâs siblingâ and so on.
Pelosi & Co. are desperate to accommodate an Âaggressive gender ideology that Âinsists âmanâ and âwomanâ are fuzzy, subjective categories, rather than biological ones.
