I think adding 'gender' rather than replacing 'sex' would be beneficial without causing too many problems. Anyone want to add an amendment?
I propose amending the bill to this effect.

I have no issues with that. If you want to draft it, I'd be more than happy to second it and bring it to a vote.

I will allow for 24 hours for someone to object or provide additional discussion, unless there is unanimous consent (whichever happens first).

After that, I will call for a final vote.
