That sucks. Sadly, it still matters less than losing other women's rights, most notably abortion, so I can't not support him in front of Trump.

Just wait until abortion providers are having long waiting lists because of the rights for trans pretending males to be able to schedule surgeries (and abortions) at women's providers, thanks to Joe.

OR, since gender *identity** *will be the protected class, not biological sex, religious extremists will state TW female-identifying people don't get pregnant, and so don't need abortions, so abortions should be banned, as they serve "no one". (While continuing to find abortions for their mistresses, as always.)

Never underestimate nefarious men...

The EA protects "gender identity" not gender, and defines "gender identity" as follows:

“(2) GENDER IDENTITY.—The term ‘gender identity’ means the gender-related identity, appearance, mannerisms, or other gender-related characteristics of an individual, regardless of the individual’s designated sex at birth."

As I just pointed out in another post below, the EA doesn't define "gender" - doesn't even try to define it, in fact.

That's never going to happen. Thankfully, most people consider that being trans is a mental illness.

Meanwhile, losing abortion access during the next mandate is a very real possibility. Look at what just happened in Poland, all the conditions are here to do the same.
