US Sarah McBride points out fatal flaw in Trump’s executive order: ‘He just declared everyone a woman’

United States Representative Sarah McBride has pointed out a fatal flaw in President Donald Trump’s executive orders, in particular, an anti-trans measure stating that the US recognises only two sexes.

President Trump delivered a series of executive orders after being sworn into office, one of which declared that the US government will recognise “only two genders, male and female” on government-issued identification.

More specifically, the order defines someone female as “a person belonging, at conception to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell,” whilst someone male is a “person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the small reproductive cell”.

But anyone with a background in biology will know that all human embryos follow a “female” developmental path until the activation of the SRY gene several weeks after conception, which sparks sexual differentiation.

Embryos with an XY genotype will develop biologically male traits linked to the Y chromosome at around six weeks. Before that point, human embryos only have biologically female traits linked to the X chromosome. In fact, genitalia at conception is “phenotypically female”, as the National Library of Medicine notes.

McBride, who is the first out trans congresswoman, quipped to The Independent that Trump “just declared everyone a woman from conception based on the language of the executive order”.

During his inaugural address on Monday (20 January), Trump said there were only two genders, “male and female”, adding that he will end “the government policy of trying to socially engineer race and gender into every aspect of public and private life”.

Among the other executive orders were moves to scrap diversity, equity and inclusion policies, ending birth-right citizenship (which guarantees citizenship to anyone born on US soil), withdrawing the country from the World Health Organization, and pardons for those convicted of crimes surrounding events on 6 January 2021.

Sex causes sex traits, not vice versa. Height is a partially sex linked trait. But that doesn't mean a tall woman is less female.

Male development doesn't begin instantly, that much is true. But if it does begin, it was destined. It's not like everyone is waiting with bated breath to see if the infant is actually going to go down the male development pathway. It's known ahead of time.

It's even more silly than that because at an early enough stage you couldn't differentiate whether it's a human or a chicken because it's just a small clump of cells on our instruments with no distinguishing features yet. Gestational problems could cause issues with fetal development, but suggesting everyone is born a woman is about the same as suggesting that everyone is born a chicken.

But everyone IS born a chicken! HAve you ever seen a baby storm the beaches of Normandy, fight in a duel, or jump on a grenade?

No, you haven't. That's because babies are notorious cowards. They are inherently chicken.

They are either desperately coping, or their brains broke when he took over and the last shred of reality was ripped away from him.

Like cartoon type being pushed around in a cart while shaking a baby rattle while cross eyed.

I'm happy to see them suffer.

They're arguing a cloaca is female genitalia. It's not. Women do not have a cloaca. It's "phenotypically female" in the sense that it's a hole, but a hole does not a vulva make. A foetus at that stage in development does not have a vagina. The female reproductive tract develops following sexual differentiation, which is predicated by the presence or absence of a Y chromosome - the Y chromosome tells the foetus to develop down the male pathway; its absence (or inactivation or some other issue like androgen insensitivity syndrome) will cause the foetus will to go down the female pathway.

If they think a cloaca is a female sex organ, then I'd like to ask them to comment on how many eggs they think this "hen" will lay:

Doesn't fucking matter if they ever looked the same because chromosomes determine sex and nothing else. Which happens at conception. That is the case both for fetal development and later in life, just because something looks kinda like a vagina doesn't mean it is one. Looking at you, stinkditches
