Summary
Representative Sarah McBride, the first out trans congresswoman, criticized Donald Trump’s executive order defining gender as strictly male or female.
McBride points out that biologically all embryos develop as female until the SRY gene activates weeks after conception.
The order, which ties gender to reproductive cells at conception, unintentionally categorizes all humans as female from conception based on biological facts.
McBride’s remarks highlight scientific flaws in the policy.
I think the bigger issue is hiding in plain sight:
Personhood does not begin at conception.
We all know that’s why the mistake was made. It’s not exactly rocket surgery.
It’s a P2025 script. Oklahoma made it into law into September, with the same ridiculous misunderstanding of basic biology. It doesn’t matter, they know who they are supposed to oppress.

And if it legally does, since I’m a chimera, can I use the carpool lane?
You should apply for a second birth certificate, on the grounds that both of the “people” who were conceived were actually born. You should seek a second SSN, claim them as a dependent on your taxes.
That would be an interesting approach to how to deal with me being trans. “Actually you only issued my brother his birth certificate, I’m the sister, here’s the proof I was born”
