Trump's regime is trying to shove the complexity of gender into a binary box labeled 'male' and 'female,' and it’s pure nonsense.

Trump's regime is trying to shove the complexity of gender into a binary box labeled 'male' and 'female,' and it’s pure nonsense. These definitions reject scientific nuance about gestation & ignore the complexities of biology, medicine, & personal autonomy.

They are promoting a rigid framework where personhood is tied to conservative religious ideology, often weaponized to control laws around abortion, healthcare, & gender. It’s not science, but theology masquerading as policy, designed to prioritize dogma over diversity of lived experiences. #gender
