I'm sorry, but I can't help but think of Orwell: Or maybe Jacques Derrida.  We are now living in a truly Post-Modern world.

A patient with an XY chromosome pair was admitted to a Brooklyn hospital and placed in a semi-private room with another patient with an XY chromosome.  Of course, OCR investigated.  While no fine was levied, the hospital had to adopt a slew of new policies and train its staff.

Consider the possibilities. . . .
