Possibly it's all for show.

The executive order says it doesn't over rule any existing laws.

That's really funny, Jet. I don't recall anyone diminishing what was happening in the UK.

This EO also gives the example of a targeted group that has been discussed here before. But, Biden's Administration thinks women should suffer for these poor guys. Somebody's got to pay - so, women!

For example, transgender Black Americans face unconscionably high levels of workplace discrimination, homelessness, and violence, including fatal violence.

Edit. The thing with US Executive Orders is the interpretation and application of existing laws. So... this "get out" would only be utilized for a big or specific whoopsie, like if it would affect a big donor business financially, not for women's benefit or consideration.

I'm not diminishing anything.

Where is that coming from?

Hmmm. Like, as US citizens, our knowledge and life experiences as US citizens aren't real? I perceived an implication of "don't get upset"

I am not a UK citizen, yet when I read the alarm of UK women concerning GRA & EA, I believed them. I fully believed they had reason to be alarmed.
