US President Donald Trump may have accidentally defined all American citizens as females, following a controversially-worded executive order regarding biological sex passed on his first day back in office in Monday.
According to his executive order, "female” means a person belonging at conception to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell, whereas "male” means a person belonging at conception to the sex that produces the small reproductive cell.
According to his executive order, "female” means a person belonging at conception to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell, whereas "male” means a person belonging at conception to the sex that produces the small reproductive cell.

Biologically, however, all fetuses at conception are female until about six or seven weeks of gestation.

The sexual organs (gonads) of a fetus remain undifferentiated up until this point, meaning that all fetal genitalia are female until 6-7 weeks post conception.
Scientifically, Trump's order puts everyone as women, given as at conception, all fetuses belong to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell.
Yea, I read that article. It's baloney.

As expected, Trump signs an EO banning biological men from competing women's sports.

To no one’s surprise, Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, AND CA state gov., resist/defy.
Illinois can be counted on to do the same. New York will surely chime in.

KTLA / Children's Hospital L.A. announces major policy change for transgender care / -4min
Description:
Children's Hospital Los Angeles has announced that it is pausing transgender hormonal therapy for patients under the age of 19. :evil:
In a statement issued Tuesday, hospital officials said they are suspending the care to assess an executive order signed last week by President Trump banning the use of hormones, puberty blockers and other transgender medical procedures on minors.

Families of transgender youth represented by the ACLU, Lambda Legal and other firms filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration over the order on Tuesday, claiming it violated the rights of transgender youth, the Los Angeles Times reported.

KTLA's Mary Beth McDade reports on Feb. 5, 2025.
Powerful organized political blocs+lobbies intent on legal protections and the U.S. PUBLIC TREASURY. They’re educated with intent to dominate. All over the world. No corner too small. $$$$

It’s a formidable task to attempt to get in their way.

When Elon Musk referred to “the fork in the road” - what an understatement.

i’m perfectly comfortable with an older, wiser, more docile Trump.

It seems clear why the transgender/women's sports issue was a winning issue for Trump. The American public has been trending against transgendered men being in women's sports for some time.

They might be illuminating for you, mister. The rest of us out here in the real world, find them ho-hum.

I'm about as excited about the solution as I was distressed over the problem.

What do you see as the solution being presented? Do you have a solution?

^^As a male Olympian, since transitioned as an adult, i think this view is informed and best.
Adults know, every decision has pros+cons. No one “gets everything”. CJ is receiving lots of criticism for these views.

THOMAS SOWELL wanted to play for the NY Dodgers, he tried out! He wants to play basketball like Michael Jordan.
i’d love to be a prima ballerina. Without sore feet. Or time commitment.

Bullying little girls and young women isn’t a good look. Even with many blessings of the White House.

A good example of what happens when there’s NO LISTENING going on. Tone deaf pride.

Following obama, Rammer-in-Chief, Community DISorganizer, some things became inevitable.

The situation has been allowed to develop wherein powerful politically organized minorities have been allowed to dominate majorities. (That’s not democracy.) A day of reckoning can be anticipated.

I think this is a deeply concerning comment. Are you saying that minorities are not allowed to exist in the same space as the majority? Is the only choice between which group gets to dominate? What is this day of reckoning? To me it sounds like you're making a threat and it sounds violent.
