    If you want to argue technicalities (and you REALLY should at least examine those before making legally binding edicts reinterpreting reality), it actually makes every American nongender.

    It specifies “at conception”, at which point no sexual characteristics have developed.

      That was my thought also. Trump getting rid of a legal gender distinction altogether by accident would be hilarious. I hope he stands his ground and insists it’s not a mistake.

      Even more specifically, at conception, we produce neither large nor small reproductive cells. So we all have no sex.
