New HHS “Guidance”: Transgender People Do Not Exist

Via press release from Health and Human Services:

Today, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) took action to support President Trump’s executive orders defending women and children and restoring the concept of biological truth in federal government.

“This administration is bringing back common sense and restoring biological truth to the federal government,” said HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. “The prior administration’s policy of trying to engineer gender ideology into every aspect of public life is over.”

In conjunction with today’s rollout, [anti-transgender activist] Riley Gaines filmed a short video about her plight as a female athlete.

“The executive order ‘Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports’ ensures the next generation of girls has a fair opportunity to compete with the safety, privacy, and equal opportunity they’re entitled to,” said Gaines. “The clarity and decisiveness of the Trump administration sends a strong, clear message to women and girls across the country that we matter.”

Definitions in HHS’ guidance include:

–Sex: A person’s immutable biological classification as either male or female.
-Female: is a person of the sex characterized by a reproductive system with the biological function of producing eggs (ova).
-Male: is a person of the sex characterized by a reproductive system with the biological function of producing sperm.
-Woman: an adult human female.
–Girl: a minor human female.
–Man: an adult human male.
–Boy: a minor human male.
–Mother: a female parent.
–Father: a male parent.

“In health care, sex distinctions can influence disease presentation, diagnosis, and treatment differently in females and males,” said Dorothy Fink, MD, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Women’s Health. “HHS recognizes that biological differences between females and males require sex-specific practices in medicine and research to ensure optimal health outcomes.”
