The reason why the Texas Bill of Rights describes who receives rights in the state naming specific groups is because of inclusion, diversity, and equality recognition of individuals among law.

Explanation:

The reason behind this answer is that after inclusion, diversity, and equality were included on a social scale. We recognize each group, instead of including them al in "all Texans". Because the meaning of providing enough importance to all the different types of individuals is equality. Since in "all Texans" we assume that a male adjective is enough to identify children, women, and the rest o the groups in society. It is a factor of inclusion.
