(d) “Female” means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell.

(e) “Male” means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the small reproductive cell.

That's how the executive order defines sex, but since sexual organs don't develop until weeks 4-5, no one on Earth meets either of these definitions which are defined as "at conception," and none of us can use the term "male" or "female."

Silly Trump forgot about the magic unicorn blessing that causes sex differentiation to occur!

Oh sorry, do words only matter when you're being called a Nazi?

You are conflating how sex is determined vs how sex is defined in the biology of mammals

Let me explain the key differences between sex definition and sex determination in mammals.

Sex definition in mammals refers to the biological classification based on reproductive anatomy, chromosomes, and gamete types. The primary categories are:
- Female: Characterized by XX chromosomes, ovaries that produce ova (large gametes), and associated reproductive structures
- Male: Characterized by XY chromosomes, testes that produce sperm (small gametes), and associated reproductive structures

Sex determination, on the other hand, is the developmental process that leads to those differences. In mammals, it involves several key steps:

1. The initial step is chromosomal, determined at fertilization when an X-carrying egg cell is fertilized by either an X-carrying or Y-carrying sperm cell.

2. The presence or absence of the SRY gene (Sex-determining Region Y) on the Y chromosome is crucial. Around week 6-7 of embryonic development, if SRY is present, it triggers a cascade of genetic events.

3. The SRY gene activates the SOX9 gene, which initiates testis development from the bipotential gonad. Without SRY (in XX embryos), different genetic pathways activate, leading to ovary development.

4. Once the gonads develop, they produce hormones (primarily testosterone from testes or estrogens from ovaries) that guide the development of secondary sex characteristics.

This distinction between definition and determination is important because while sex is often defined by the end result (reproductive anatomy and function), the determination process is a complex developmental pathway that can be influenced by various genetic and environmental factors.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I’ll ask again but they’re both bad faith agitator accounts employed by who the fuck knows and why and how is it they’re not banned yet? They’re only here to cause trouble and ahite hate on every single topic possible.
