World recognized "Male and Female"
The International Transgender Day of Visibility, recognized only in America and Europe not globally for more than a decade, is, for many trans Americans, taking on a new weight this year as President Trump and his administration seek to deny their existence.
Trump is right. Orders signed by Trump since his return to office in January aim to bar transgender troops from serving openly in the military, end federal support for gender-affirming care for minors, ban trans girls from school sports, and prohibit federal prisons from housing trans women in female facilities. None of the orders use the word transgender.
An order Trump signed hours after his inauguration on Jan. 20 declares the government recognizes only two sexes, male and female, which federal agencies have used to justify cutting funds for LGBTQ services and removing references to trans people from government websites.
“To a lot of people, [Trans Day of Visibility] means Evil and Devil ,”
