Did anyone else notice that the Guardian has at last caught up with this discussion, and supplied exactly the tropes one expected of them:
Sex is really complicated, too complicated for you plebs to comprehend.
Now we're all female, because early embryos are not yet morphologically sex-differentiated , ha ha ha!
If Trump is allowed to say male and female are different, it gives him carte blanche to take away female's rights, just like the Taliban.

It was the most read opinion piece this morning but not open for comments. Nor did they solicit letters for the letters page.

After his executive order on sex, is Trump legally the first female president?

The confusing and vague executive order underscores how complex sex is and why it’s hard to reduce it into a neat binary

Not to mention scientific illiteracy akin to flat-earthism.

The morphological sex differentiation which becomes evident is based on the chromosomal differentiation established at fertilisation.

Totally stupid article full of misinformation.

Yes I agreed with the article.

🤣🤣🤣Only messing! What a load of bonkers! The Guardian is scraping National Enquirer level of conspiracy theory....

It is utterly demented.

But think about it - this is their finest take on the matter. All they have is declaring Trump is now a woman. By deliberately convoluting the very clear order.

And yet still someone will come along and agree with it. Any minute now...

I think there's a cat, that got lost on its way from the other thread.

*Specific thread

Ereshkigalangcleg · 26/01/2025 10:36

I'm glad someone has started a specific article to discuss this idiotic article and talking point in general.

Introverted navel gazing to suit their narrative. Can anyone write anything these day? Embarrassing

AlisonDonut · 26/01/2025 10:29

I did notice it!

I'd love to know how the 'you're all meanies' people wangle in their heads that they now think Trump is a woman due to this legislation.

I used to like the guardian but they have become an embarrassment
