Not on my watch.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mace wasn\u2019t just venting online.<\/p>\n<p>She immediately took action, leaving a voicemail and sending a text to Clemson President Jim Clements demanding answers. &#8220;Since there are only two genders,&#8221; she said, &#8220;I just had this issue with USC, and I would like to make sure that you guys are following suit.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/nancy-mace-targeted-pennsylvania-man-arrested-threatening-trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>EXCLUSIVE: NANCY MACE TARGETED BY PENNSYLVANIA MAN ARRESTED FOR THREATENING TRUMP<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The form in question, first flagged by Libs of TikTok, showed a dropdown menu allowing students to select from 15 different gender identities.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, Clemson responded exclusively to Fox News Digital, clarifying that &#8220;Clemson University does not have this type of menu in its housing application.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Instead, the menu appeared in an external vendor&#8217;s health services portal, was optional, and has since been taken down. The university said it is now &#8220;consulting with medical professionals to determine what information is needed for medical care purposes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Mace made it clear in her social media posts that she believes state universities should reflect two genders, male and female, if they want to keep receiving taxpayer dollars. &#8220;If it were me and Clemson University had 15 genders, they would not get a dime in the state of South Carolina,&#8221; she warned.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/graphic-language-congresswomans-profane-supermarket-argument-constituent-caught-camera\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>GRAPHIC LANGUAGE: CONGRESSWOMAN&#8217;S PROFANE SUPERMARKET ARGUMENT WITH CONSTITUENT CAUGHT ON CAMERA<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Cis is a slur,&#8221; Mace emphasized in her Instagram video, adding, &#8220;Women are women, men are men.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This isn\u2019t Mace&#8217;s first stand in the gender wars.
