Trump declares ~~himself~~ herself the first female President of the USA? 😳

(Edit: Excuse me Mrs. President, I had misgendered you.)

I will fucking eat my shirt if someone from the media addresses every male person in the Trump administration as "Madam" or "Ms."

Technically no. They aren't male or female, they're undifferentiated. Since we're neither male nor female at conception, this order means males and females don't actually exist at all.

I think this is actually more gender abolitionist if you think about it. No one is producing reproductive cells/gametes at conception. They begin by producing undifferentiated stem cells that will later specialize into all of the other cell types.

Male and female now officially retired. Rejoice!

MAGA: "truth and science needs to bow to holy scripture!"

The Bible: "For in Christ there is.. neither male nor female..." (Galatians 3:28)

MAGA: "wait, not like that!"

Turns out they were always asking, "What is a woman?" because they had no idea either.

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 30 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

It's a bad faith question that deserves a hillarious answer

"What is a woman? Why it's someone whom, family members aside, you've never seen naked."

"What is a woman? The kind of people at the bar who cover their drinks when you get too close."

"What is a woman? A MISERABLE LITTLE PILE OF SECRETS!"

"What is a woman? Well these curvy people who smell nice and go by she/her pronouns and sometimes they have big meaty penises to suck, but only if you're lucky."

"What is a woman? According to Donald Trump's day 1 executive order; literally every American Citizen."

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)

[–] joyjoy@lemm.ee 89 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

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

[–] NotMyOldRedditName@lemmy.world 27 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

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.

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 month ago (1 children)

A transition period, as it were?

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.

[–] OhStopYellingAtMe@lemmy.world 31 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

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!

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

[–] Voroxpete@sh.itjust.works 72 points 1 month 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.
