From #DonaldTrump EO:

"“‘Female’ means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell,”... “‘Male’ means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the small reproductive cell.”

...All fetuses have phenotypically female genitalia until they reach six to seven weeks of gestation...

By describing a fetus as a person from conception, Trump has legitimized fetal personhood."

Text from article:
A flurry of executive orders that President Donald Trump signed into place Monday night included one that cemented language at the executive level to delegitimize transgender identities. But within the fold of that order, titled “Defending Women From Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government,” lay another damaging detail: the elevation of fetal personhood to the national stage.

“‘Female’ means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell,” the order reads in part. “‘Male’ means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the small reproductive cell.”

Unfortunately, there seems to be a misunderstanding by the executive order’s authors: All fetuses have phenotypically female genitalia until they reach six to seven weeks of gestation, at which point some fetuses can start to be visually differentiated as male, according to the National Institutes of Health.

By describing a fetus as a person from conception, Trump has legitimized fetal personhood. Pro-abortion activists have long warned that fetal personhood, an ideology that calls for providing equal human rights to a fetus (even if it’s a cluster of cells), will effectively strip pregnant people of their own rights. The legal language employed by fetal personhood also effectively categorizes any person receiving an abortion at any stage as a murderer.
The article doesn't mention it, but apx 1.7% of babies born are #Intersex, meaning at birth, they are not definitively male or female.

"Intersex people are born with sex characteristics (such as sexual anatomy, reproductive organs, hormonal patterns and/or chromosomal patterns) that do not fit typical binary notions of #male or #female bodies. Experts estimate that up to 1.7% of the population are born with intersex traits."
