The proposed bill, if enacted, would amend Arizona's statutes by adding a new chapter that defines specific sex-based terms and clarifies their usage in laws, administrative rules, and public policies. Key definitions include "boy," "girl," "male," "female," "man," "mother," "father," and "sex," with the latter being defined strictly as biological sex at birth, encompassing only male and female categories. The bill emphasizes that sex does not include gender identity and aims to ensure clarity and uniformity in the application of laws related to sexual discrimination and equality.

Additionally, the bill mandates that any policy or law prohibiting sex discrimination must also protect individuals from unfair treatment based on their sex in relation to similarly situated individuals of the opposite sex. It allows for the establishment of separate single-sex environments in specific contexts, such as athletics and shelters, and requires that entities collecting vital statistics identify individuals strictly as male or female. The act includes a severability clause, ensuring that if any part is deemed invalid, the remainder remains effective, and it will be officially titled the "Arizona Sex-based Terms Act."
