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."

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."
