At a conference for young conservatives in Arizona Sunday, US President-elect Donald Trump said the official policy of his upcoming administration would be the recognition of only two genders, male and female, as he pledged to end "transgender lunacy” on the first day of his presidency.

President-elect Donald Trump on Sunday pledged to "stop the transgender lunacy" on day one of his presidency, as Republicans — set to control both chambers of Congress and the White House — continue their push against LGBTQ rights.

"I will sign executive orders to end child sexual mutilation, get transgender out of the military and out of our elementary schools and middle schools and high schools," the president-elect said at an event for young conservatives in Phoenix, Arizona.

He also vowed to "keep men out of women's sports," adding that "it will be the official policy of the United States government that there are only two genders, male and female."
