It's not really a travel warning. It's an addition to the info about what's needed to enter the US.
You now need a passport that specifies "male" or "female" as your gender.

What if a country decided to completely remove the gender information from their passports? The US would then have to decide whether to ban everyone from that country or allow everyone?

yeah it seems like a pointless vestige now, why does it really matter what gender you are anyway?

It's not about gender specifically. It's always about control.
