Yet currently 17 states allow birth certificates changes to reflect new gender "identities."

Right, you look up Wikipedia for the 1976 Olympics, the decathlon winner is listed as "Caitlin Jenner (as Bruce Jenner)".  That's wrong, yet another example of Wikipedia chasing away any editor who is not hard-left socially.  It should read "Bruce Jenner" but then the link would go to a page called "Caitlin Jenner."  Minor point, but an example of a larger problem.
My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.
