San Diego County supervisors voted 3–2 on April 26 in favor of creating an ordinance that redefines the word “women” to include biological males who identify as women, despite an overwhelming show of opposition from the public.
The supervisors approved the first reading of the local ordinance, which would be based on the U.N.’s Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, a human rights treaty penned 40 years ago.
