Trump two-gender edict would upend 'X' identity on passports

The federal government is set to only recognize two sexes, male and female, under an executive order that President Donald Trump is soon expected to sign.

The order would reverse efforts by the Biden administration to broaden gender identity designations, including on passports.

“As of today, it will henceforth be the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders, male and female,” Trump said during his inaugural address Monday, taking an early step to fulfill one of his culture war campaign promises.

The order, a Trump administration official told reporters Monday, is aimed at “defending women from gender ideology extremism and restoring biological truths to the federal government.” Male and female “are sexes that are not changeable, and they are grounded in fundamental and incontrovertible reality,” the official said.

1. Well he isn't wasting anymore time, is he?

[no_hypocrisy]

2. So, is Trump publicly stating that Caitlyn Jenner is a 100% woman?

4. He is expected

He is expected to install a policy that gender is sex as assigned at birth, but so far all we have is his statement at about 12:28 pm. That could change later today or this week. It will then remain to be seen how the policy is framed and enacted, and decisions will need to be made for people who have changed gender markers to M or F, as well as people who have had various forms of medical intervention.

6. Caitlyn is now Bruce,

apparently.

3. Going to have lots of nameless officials ignorantly blathering

about things they know nothing about and ruining countless lives with their stupidity.

5. Part of his effort to Make Hate Socially Acceptable

This is why all the Bubbas love him so much.

Remember, half the population is below average of intelligence. Those are the ones who voted for him.

7. Some babies are

are born with ambiguous genitalia, meaning they have both male and female parts. It's not clear at birth whether they are predominately male or female.

8. Gotta know which ones to 'grab by the pussy', eh Il Douchey?

9. Back in 1984, I met a "hermaphrodite" who had been raised female from birth, and...

...as such, she had won the Miss Orange County CA beauty contest, sometime in the 1970s.

Lynn, as he was introduced to me, was living as a male, and had big bushy sideburns.

He showed me a picture of himself from his Miss Orange County days, and she was very attractive, a literal Beauty Queen.

He was also a good looking guy.

The best of both worlds!

And how does "the government" ban such people who were not born distinctly male or female?

FUCK TRUMP & ALL MAGATS!!!

10. They are such idiots. The entire discussion is way over their heads.

It's way more nuanced than President Felon could ever comprehend.

Here's an excellent example:
