Overrule the supreme courts decision to define woman as biological sex
Overrule the supreme courts decision to define woman as biological sex and instead define it as the secondary sexual characteristics of a female. Legally defining biological sex leaves transgender individuals, and those other hormonal disorders open to discrimination.

Background
We feel that transgender and intersex people should be able to adopt the appropriate roles in society that match their gender identity and not be segregated by their gender reassignment - however with the new definition of biological sex there is no way to protect them without outing them as transgender which is a risk to personal security.
