New HHS Guidance Declares ‘Mother’ Is Female & ‘Father’ Is Male

The US is gradually being returned to normal with the unveiling of new guidance by the Health Department.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) took action to support President Trump’s executive orders defending women and children and restoring the concept of biological truth in federal government.

In one of his first actions as US Health Secretary, Robert Kennedy Jr. has announced new guidance defining ‘mother’ as the female parent and ‘father’ as the male parent.

The new guidance was unveiled by the Health Department is part of President Trump’s “only two sexes” policy.

RT reports: Since taking office, Trump has issued multiple gender-related orders affirming that US government policy recognizes only two sexes – male and female. He has instructed the health department (HHS) to provide “clear guidance” within 30 days on how to interpret sex-based definitions.

The guidance issued by the HHS on Wednesday defines ‘sex’ as an immutable biological classification, designating individuals strictly as male or female. A ‘female’ is described as “a person of the sex characterized by a reproductive system with the biological function of producing eggs”. A ‘male’ has a reproductive system “with the biological function of producing sperm”. Consequently, a ‘mother’ is defined as a female parent, and a ‘father’ as a male parent.

“This administration is bringing back common sense and restoring biological truth to the federal government,” RFK Jr. was quoted as saying in the HHS statement. “The prior administration’s policy of trying to engineer gender ideology into every aspect of public life is over,” he argued.

For years, the US has moved away from traditional parental titles, replacing ‘mother’ and ‘father’ with ‘parent one’ and ‘parent two’. In 2011, the State Department justified the change, arguing that gender-specific parental terms were outdated. Furthermore, in August of last year, the Vermont Department of Health recommended using gender-neutral terms such as ‘child’ or ‘kid’ instead of ‘son’ or ‘daughter’ to promote inclusive language.

“It took many years of effort, but we are finally back to science and common sense,” Roger Severino, who served as director of HHS’ Office for Civil Rights during the first Trump administration, posted on X on Thursday, praising the announcement.

Trump has swiftly rolled back protections for transgender rights, as well as diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs, which the federal government had established during former President Joe Biden’s administration.

Trump ended federal support for medical procedures related to sex change procedures for minors, to protect them from “chemical and surgical mutilations.”
