I'm on board with this new one gender policy.

I didn't consider this option, but it seems to be an easy fix to the whole gender thing. Everyone is female. period. *(no pun intended)

Own that period joke. You conceived it, whether accidental or not, so you should carry it to term.

so you should carry it to term.

Are required to carry it to term. Aborting the pun is a crime.

Silly Matthew, still believing that words written by Trump's administration mean anything...
Same mistake many opponents of the Nazis made in the beginning.
Fascists don't play by the rules, whatever they say or write only has meaning as long as it benefits them.
When you point out inconsistencies in what they wrote yesterday, they laugh at you. And then they shoot you.

AFAT: Assigned Female At Trump

[–] WrenFeathers@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Can you imagine, an entire nation- identifying as female? I’d imagine their reaction would be similar to how Christian’s felt when they saw the Bible being removed from schools….

“Nooooo! Not like that!”

That should simplify things.

Listen I get that these people have never taken a science class, but I damn well know at least some of them watched Jurassic Park.

It's cool and all to dunk on their logical fallacies, but don't think for one second that their poor wording will stop them from enacting untold violence against trans people.

...that's not how that works.

Early stages of development are bipotential, which means they could develop either way, they're not initially female.

Around 6-7 weeks, if carrying a Y chromosome carrying the gene SRY, they develop into testes. If there are two X chromosomes, then ovaries develop.

...So we're all legally non-binary? NBs rise up!

Now, I'm not gonna disagree with this but I reckon it's a bit confusing to be changed so suddenly.

Can we have an adaptation period? It's gonna be tough to break the habit in such short notice.

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 65 points 1 week ago (1 children)

A transition period, as it were?

[–] Catoblepas@lemmy.blahaj.zone 36 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

I suppose there is also the argument to be made that Trump made everyone nonbinary, as a zygote has no apparent sex characteristics or gamete production, being a single cell.

So if all men were women at conception, then that would make all men transsexual......

Trump increases the wage gap rather unconventionally.

Project 2025 essentially classifies women as second-class citizens.

This executive order essentially classifies all citizens as women.

Precedent essentially exempts millionaires & billionaires from legal prosecution.

All non-wealthy people are now vassals or less. Welcome to feudalism 2.0.

What a roundabout way to get unisex bathrooms.

Congratulations to women, your public bathrooms will be less crowded. To my trans brothers and sisters, see you at the sink!

To all newly inducted members, I think I can speak on our collective behalf when I say “slay.”

[–] magic_lobster_party@fedia.io 22 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They will probably correct it to say ” when life starts”. Problem solved!

[–] Voroxpete@sh.itjust.works 72 points 1 week ago (2 children)

No, the "at conception" part is super important because it's doing a double whammy of also sneaking in "personhood-at-conception" to further undermine abortion rights.

"The sex that produces the small reproducive cell"

JFC, that is so mind bogglingly stupid.
