"Trump really just said, 'Free expression will no longer be limited,' and 'There are now only two genders, male and female' in the same breath."

There has been a mixed reaction from world leaders as the LGBT community responds to US President Donald Trump's decision to formally recognise only two genders.

President Donald Trump has delivered a series of executive orders after being sworn into office, one of which declared that the US government will recognise “only two genders, male and female”. The White House has now suggested that the executive order will remove the “X” gender marker on passports and other government-issued IDs for trans and non-binary people in the US.
