Summary

Representative Sarah McBride, the first out trans congresswoman, criticized Donald Trump’s executive order defining gender as strictly male or female.

McBride points out that biologically all embryos develop as female until the SRY gene activates weeks after conception.

The order, which ties gender to reproductive cells at conception, unintentionally categorizes all humans as female from conception based on biological facts.

McBride’s remarks highlight scientific flaws in the policy.

    America even now runs on the WORD of the law, not the intent.

    Yeah except not really. Have you paid attention to recent SCOTUS decisions? They aren’t even bothering to make cogent arguments in some cases, and hearing others that never should have standing in the first place.
