Removing gender roles is just another piece in removing masculinity from society. Equality is king. Except for the white male.

Another term instead of father or non-birthing parent, could be m*f*. It's accurate. Since we're into following the science, how about sperm donor for the father. Sperm recipient for the mother. This is prima facie evidence that a university "education" is a diminished product these days. So many things to address in this world, and these fools are hung up on father/mother.

Again, Toby...
I know it's hard to string a few logical thoughts together, but it is the pattern here that is of concern. Yeah, if this is one case in Europe or whatever, no big deal.
But, you can find the same chit happening here - everywhere. It is on linkedin now, people declaring their pronouns. It is highly embedded in the university system - "Hi my name is Toby he him his." You need to get on board with this if you are a real libby.
Dude, you are just unaware! Come on man!

Not at all my friend. I just truly find it stupid. It doesn't affect my life in the least. I don't personally care what is going on in this Aussie University or even if Clemson were to advocate this same position. I just think it's stupid. If you don't, hey that's cool too.

It should probably just be Parent 1, Parent 2, Parent...

whatever. because this language still excludes step parents. We cross out mother and father on forms all the time and replace it with parent. don't get me started with our battle with SCDHEC on the birth certificate forms.
Otherwise, this dude saying this removes the joy of motherhood is comical. that's a bit of a reach.

I’m the “constantly sacrificing my own happiness and well-being for the benefit of others and working myself to death so all of my dependents can spend my money while also contributing 50% to the household duties” parent

but it feels like, more and more, we're crumpling up societal norms and tossing them in the trash because they offended about 5 people globally. It's like these things aren't done because people actually complained in any real numbers, but more because the people that make the rules THOUGHT it might offend a high number of people.
Pre-emptive inoffensiveness.
