Minnesota SF886 establishes biological definitions for male, female, and related terms in state statutes.

Minnesota SF886 amends state statutes to establish biological definitions for terms such as male, female, man, woman, boy, girl, mother, and father. It specifies that "male" refers to an individual with a reproductive system that produces sperm, and "female" refers to an individual with a reproductive system that produces eggs. The bill also clarifies that "gender" refers to biological sex unless used in conjunction with other words or as an adjective. These definitions apply across state law, administrative rules, and guidelines unless otherwise specified.
