    TASMANIA HAS VOTED TO MAKE GENDER ON BIRTH CERTIFICATES OPTIONAL.



    Tasmania is set to become the first Aussie state to introduce gender optional birth certificates after reforms were passed in the state’s lower house.

    The changes to the Births, Deaths and Marriage Act still need to pass the upper house, but would allow parents to choose whether their child's gender is recorded on birth certificates.
    PM Scott Morrison slammed the development as “ridiculous” and called on Bill Shorten to outlaw the changes, which were passed with the support of Labor, the Greens and Liberal speaker Sue Hickey.
