Parents are asked if their newborn babies identify as transgender on a form that is required under New Jersey state law, it has been claimed. A form distributed by several hospitals asks parents about their newborn baby's gender identity and sexual orientation. Lawmakers said that the form was not required to be filled out for patients so young, however, the group which represents the hospitals distributing the form insisted it was a legal requirement. The form asks parents a number of questions, including: "Do you identify your baby as a transgender male/ trans man/ female to male", other options include "genderqueer" or an "additional gender category", and if the baby is lesbian or gay, heterosexual, "self-describes" or is "questioning/unsure".
This is absolutely insane.New Jersey hospitals are handing parents forms asking if their newborn baby is bisexual or even transgender"a one-day-old infant.And it's state law, paid for by your hard earned taxpayer dollars. https://t.co/7w2lcI1T4E

Then it just has to be true.

If the linked news article (to the UK's "2024 News Website of the Year," whatever that means) isn't good enough for you, you could run an Internet search. Which would turn up links to other sites, like this one:

"Inspira tells Action News that, while state law requires them and every other hospital in New Jersey to ask patients about their race, ethnicity, sexual orientation and gender identity, patients can also decline to provide that information."
The goons who fall for this, they don't see the problem in declaring your child is straight.
I have never had to "declare" my daughters sexual/gender preferences. Have you? Have you ever had to express your child's preference?
The general point, though, is correct. If you can't say this is stupid you're part of the problem. It is genuinely stupid to ask those kinds of questions about a newborn, IMHO.
The law requesting this information is an amendment to demographic information gathered from a patient. There has been newborn demographic questions before this.

The purpose is not to offend the patient, or the parents.
Its perfectly reasonable to request this information when the world gets offended if you don't properly address individuals. I can imagine some parent being offended if BLUE was used on a transgender female baby. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if someone would sue the hospital as trying to discriminate because of it.
So sorry, not stupid and not moronic, its the by product of hysterically extreme people, like yourself.

These are all outlier lies.
More children attempt to commit suicide AFTER surgery rather than BEFORE.
Individuals who underwent gender-affirming surgery had a 12.12-fold higher suicide attempt risk than those who did not (3.47% vs. 0.29%, RR 95% CI 9.20-15.96, p < 0.0001).
