Tesla Inc CEO Elon Musk and his partner, Canadian singer Grimes, have become parents, for the first time together. The couple announced that they plan to join a growing group of families choosing to raise their children following a gender-neutral parenting style.
More and more parents are rejecting gender stereotypes, such as dressing girls in pink and boys in blue, instead allowing their kids to make choices for themselves and determine their gender on their own.
“I don’t want to gender them in case that’s not how they feel in their life,” Grimes, 32, whose real name is Claire Boucher, told fans while discussing her pregnancy, according to ‘Reuters’. Although Grimes had declined to reveal the sex, Elon Musk announced through a Tweet that they had a baby boy.
Posting two pictures of the newborn, who they have named X Æ A-12, Musk said mother and baby were “all good”.
