Guidance from the University of the Arts London (UAL) tells staff maternity applies to 'all genders'.
The university was last night slammed by MPs and free speech campaigners who accused it of 'erasing' the experience of women.
Tory MP Jonathan Gullis said: 'It is disturbing that a university does not understand the basics of biology... I hope [it] will stop this pathetic woke nonsense.'
Toby Young, director of the Free Speech Union, said the university 'has become so pickled in woke gobbledegook it's becoming a bit of a joke'.
