				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So Brighton City Council goes beyond parody and <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2222991/Brighton-Council-plans-remove-Mr-Mrs-titles-documents-protect-citys-transgender-community-offence.html"><em><strong>proposes</strong></em></a> to abolish titles like Mr, Mrs, Miss or Ms on all official forms and messages because they upset “the Transgender community”</p>
<blockquote><p><em><strong>Green Party deputy leader Coun MacCafferty said: &#8216;Trans people aren&#8217;t necessarily male or female and sometimes they don&#8217;t want to be defined by their gender.<br />
&#8216;Putting Mr and Mrs on a form is completely useless. </strong></em></p></blockquote>
<p>As a fully paid up member of “the Gender community” if I lived in Brighton I think I would immediately be “upset” by this bizarre proposal. However, in the spirit of moderation, I would suggest the following compromise.</p>
<p>Keep the four accepted conventions of “gender” address and add a fifth for the “Trans people”&#8230;&#8230;.<em><strong>Tr</strong></em>&#8230;&#8230;then everyone could be happy&#8230;.</p>
<p>Result!!!!!</p>
