US Government: There Are Only Two Sexes
by John Steenhof, HRLA
Slowly, then all at once. That’s how quickly the global consensus can change.
In a historic moment earlier this week, the US government has announced it will only recognise two sexes.
Newly sworn-in President Donald Trump declared “immediate” executive actions to recognise “only two” biologically distinct sexes.
“I will end the government policy of trying to socially engineer race and gender into every aspect of public and private life,” the newly sworn-in president said.
In one flick of the pen, so many of the federally enforced laws that pushed gender ideology onto citizens were gone.
Vindicated
This is a major vindication for people like Canadian advocate Billboard Chris, supported by HRLA, who has for years been travelling the world to raise awareness about the harms that gender ideology can have on families and people.
Chris took to X (formerly Twitter) to share his support.
“I don’t like exaggerating, so let me just say that this is the best first day in the history of politics,” he said.
“President Trump just nuked gender ideology.”
Biology Reality
The Executive Order was very clear in its intention.
“It is the policy of the United States to recognise two sexes, male and female,” it reads.
“These sexes are not changeable and are grounded in fundamental and incontrovertible reality.”
This is why it is so important for democracies to preserve the right to free speech.
Changes like the one signed by President Trump are only possible when ordinary people are allowed to speak without fear of penalty, no matter how difficult the conversation.
Much can be said about these changes, but the lesson remains the same: speak the truth, even when it feels like the world is against you.
