Trump Administration Considers Rule Defining Sex As Male Or Female

The Trump administration reportedly wants to establish a legal definitiion of sex as either male or female, and determined at birth.

According to the New York Times , the Department of Health and Human Services is pushing a definition “based on immutable biological traits” and determined by one’s genitalia when they are born.

The definition could potentially lead to rolling back Obama-era guidelines and recognition of transgender or gender-fluid people. The White House has not yet responded to the NYT report.
