There's always more complexity than you know. There are trans men with wombs who give birth. There are are surrogates. There are 1000 other situations that I don't even know about. The law says "person giving birth", and I like that choice of wording. It doesn't exclude someone who is in a new, unexpected situation. Just the same, the law says that the two parents can share the weeks of work off, not "mother and father", as that's clearly not always going to be an accurate representation. It's not political correctness, just accuracy in terms.
