I read this story because the FARK headline read: "7-year-old boy will attend school as a girl, will be allowed to use the girls' bathrooms and changing facilities, and to wear girls PE clothes. He either has a gender identity disorder or is a friggin' genius"

You'll have to forgive me for being dumbfounded at the idea that a 7-year-old could be suffering from "gender identity disorder," but it was the last paragraph of the story that had me scratching my head.

A 44-year-old who had fathered two children before changing sex recently failed to register her new gender after a court said it would "confuse" her sons, aged 12 and 14. The revised law allows only transsexuals who are over 19, single and childless and have undergone a sex change to change their official gender.

Why is the word confuse in quotes? Shouldn't it be "her"?
