Ratelband argued that he was suffering from age discrimination, and said that his desire to have his age changed to 49 was similar to legally changing one’s name or gender.
But the court pushed back on that argument, writing that changing his age would render age-related requirements like voting rights and school attendance “meaningless.”
Changing one’s sex renders being a biological male or female meaningless.
Hmmm, so what are you legally allowed to change???
🙂
The Dutch are infamous for declaring a person unfit to live, euthanizing the unfit. How’d they miss this nut job?
He’s not a Dutchman, he’s a Doucheman.
Why does he need their permission? Close every bank account you have, end all credit cards, and any other public persona – become like a migrant with NO history and start over with a new birthdate. Love to see how that works out.
If age is a biological fact, much like sex organs, there seems no logical reason to deny self-determined age but permit (that is, celebrate) self-determination of gender. In fact, the whole concept of a forward-moving, linear time is a social construct of the white-supremacist patriarchy which enacts and reinforces the power structures of the status quo. Thus, time itself is problematic.

More importantly, what are you NOT allowed to change. I’m not seeing much.
well, brad, it seems you CAN change your sex and your race…..but not your age…because THAT is a matter of public record, and a FACT, that you were born in such-n-such year….so you can’t change THAT…..but you can amend your birth certificate to show that you were black when in fact, you are white….and you can amend your birth certificate to say you are male, when in fact your are female, or vice versa…but DAMN….when you are 69 years old, you are goddamn 69 years old, no matter what you think!!!!
it’s the left….do you really expect logic from them????
i’m deciding to identify as a six year old guatemalen refugee from china, and also i’m a uigher….plus, i’m a transexual. and i identify as donald trump……
this is why we used to have insane asylums….gnome sane?????
“this is why we used to have insane asylums”
Whens the last time locally you’ve read about a 5150 detainer? Hell they run them for office.
LOCK THEM UP…..LOCK THEM UP……LOCK THEM UP….
when “we” decided – which is in quotes because “we” had nothing to do with it – to let all the crazies loose upon america, for reasons unknown, but something to do with “crazies have a right to be crazies,” we let them all loose upon the country….
they are the majority of the homeless….they are a problem wherever the homeless are welcomed…
this is all because we don’t lock them up and take care of them in a hospital environment…..they steal, they kill, and they cost us gazillions of dollars, because we can’t be bothered to house them in the asylums where they belong.
these people once upon a time had a place where they were taken care of…now they are on the street…..they once upon a time had medical care…now they are on the street…
democrats did this to them….democrats did this to their cities…..democrats just LOVE these people, their favorite victims……
All that time in the court system wasted, because this randy old shite feels he deserves better access to younger women to make things tingle more down below.
Hasn’t he ever heard of being a sugar daddy? He clearly has no problem with misrepresentation.
