Equal Protection Under The Constitution

Equal protection under The Constitution is spelled out in the 14th Amendment, Section one. No State shall make or enforce any law which denies to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. Any law would include federal laws. Any "person," no matter what their gender or sex status, is entitled to equal protection under both state and federal laws. Any law which discriminates against male, female or other cannot be made or enforced. Any law, including Title IX civil rights law, cannot exclude transsexuals and asexuals. Restrictions on someone on the basis of their DNA whether by federal law or State law cannot be enforced or allowed by any State; to do otherwise is to abridge privileges and deny equal protection of the laws for citizens.

Amendment 14 of The Constitution, Section 1: "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."

Addendum:
Quick, let's whip out our DNA testing kits! If a woman tries to enter the woman's room but her DNA says male, we must enforce our binary beliefs and send her to the men's room! We must protect other women from lesbian transsexuals. She must go into the other bathroom where the men there can get their probes out and test her DNA. No, I don't know what to do if a person has XXY instead of XX or XY; we must take her to catholic priests for exorcism of that extra X or take her to the Supreme Court for a ruling. But don't let an XXY into either bathroom! Test everyone! Protect everyone from everybody!
