Wouldn't this just mean no one's a male or a female. I get that we develop female characteristics first in utero, then go to male if the y chromosome is there in most situations, but thats later on. At conception, the only cells you're producing are undifferentiated stem cells, not reproductive cells.

So trump just abolished gender?

No, the EO as written presumes that there is such a thing as a binary sex which is determined at conception such that those who belong to one sex go on to develop sperm and so on. How those sexes are defined and how to determine whether one belongs to one or the other is left unspecified. It's not a technical document, it's just supposed to harm a specific group of people rather than offer a coherent perspective.
