...that doesn't mean I'm predicting that in a millennium or so we'll all be androgynous, or announcing that I think we dammed well ought to be androgynous. I'm merely observing, in the peculiar, devious, and thought-experimemtal manner proper to science fiction, that if you look at us at certain odd times of the day in certain weathers, we already are.

Black Couple Says Texas Authorities Seized Their Newborn Because They Chose a Midwife Over a Hospital

Two weeks ago, Dallas parents Temecia and Rodney Jackson opted for a home birth for their newborn daughter, Mila, with licensed midwife Cheryl Edinbyrd. As of Thursday, she remains in the custody of Dallas Child Protective Services in what the Jacksons and their advocates at the Dallas-based, Black women-led birth and reproductive justice organization Afiya Center have likened to a “kidnapping.” Minutes before the start of a scheduled Thursday morning hearing for the couple to get their newborn back, the hearing was postponed to April 20th—two weeks from now.
