Equality Texas: Calling gender fluidity "ideology" while codifying a binary is a profound scientific failure. "Biological sex" isn't one thing—it's a collection of traits, and chromosomes (XX, XY, XXY, XYY, etc.) don't always align with binaries. Laws like #SB8 ignore reality to enforce a political view. #TxLege

Here we are again. Texas lawmakers are debating another bill ( #SB8 ) that would dictate which bathrooms transgender people can use. Meanwhile, urgent issues wait in the wings. We're at the Capitol and will be sharing updates from the hearing live on our socials. Follow along! #TxLege

Rep. Yvonne Davis just called out a fundamental flaw of #SB8. She asked how its rigid "biological sex" binary accounts for intersex people. The witness had no real answer. This bill will lead to the harassment of anyone who doesn't fit a strict stereotype, including intersex individuals. #TxLege
