The agriculture secretary canceled this. They were about to spend $600k studying the menstrual cycle in transgender men, also known as a biological woman. This sounds like a money grab to me. A syndicated Fox News article on AOL had more info:
The U.S. Department of Agriculture canceled a grant worth $600,000 for the study of menstrual cycles in transgender men, Secretary Brooke Rollins said Friday.The Southern University Agricultural & Mechanical College in Louisiana was the recipient of the grant, according to a database on USAspending.gov."The first occurrence of menstruation occurs at approximately 12 years of age and ends with menopause at roughly 51 years of age," the grant description reads.
