Way too much to comment on after looking at the specifics of some of these bills. But I was fascinated by the Oklahoma definition of "female" as “Female” means a natural person whose biological reproductive system is developed to produce ova"

Are they excluded from whatever rights are protected by the bill? Does one have to prove, if one of those rights are violated, that one's biological reproductive system produces ova?
And are those whose reproductive systems haven't developed also not female? So "girl" includes only those post-puberty?
