President Trump has signed an executive order mandating that the U.S. government recognize only two genders—male and female—on official documents like passports, medical records, and government forms. The order defines gender strictly as male or female, assigned at birth, based on biological science—rejecting what Trump called the "far-left ideological stupidity" of gender fluidity.
Supporters say this restores biological reality and ensures legal clarity, while critics argue it ignores gender diversity and erases legal recognition for transgender and nonbinary individuals.
