The bill amends South Carolina law to define sex-related terms and clarify their use in state laws and regulations.
The bill amends the South Carolina Code to add definitions and rules for terms related to human biological sexes. It specifies that an individual's sex is either male or female, based on biological characteristics. The definitions clarify terms such as "female," "male," "gender," and "mother" and "father." The bill also states that "gender identity" is not a synonym for sex or gender. It aims to reconcile the meaning of these terms in state laws and regulations, ensuring they are not confused with concepts like gender identity or gender expression.
