What is the definition of a "Woman"?

[Twilight Hue]

Nearsightedness is natural. Spectacles and contact lenses are artificial.

Yea. It could be seen that way. It wouldn't be a lie.

It does provide an insight that trans is essentially an aid like a prosthesis does for a missing leg or arm.

The new supreme court nomination of Biden Ketanji Brown Jackson can not answer this question.

A women is a female. Its nonconformist that are all alike.

The new supreme court nomination of Biden Ketanji Brown Jackson can not answer this question.

Why do people always have to define a woman but I don’t see the same thing for men.

 

[Kelly of the Phoenix]

Question.. Do you think a Supreme Court Judge should know what a Woman is!?

Why should a judge bother with biology and psychology? Isn’t it their job to focus on the law? Did the law bother to define gender? Is their definition valid?

 

[Evangelicalhumanist]

Biologically? No. What is going on inside of your head has nothing to do with your biology.

Then you are talking about sex, and not gender.

 

[Kelly of the Phoenix]

Evangelicalhumanist I am not being nominated for a Supreme Court Judge! Does it matter my definition!?
1. Female
2. Male
......................................................................................

Definition of male
(Entry 1 of 2)

Male seahorses bear their kids….

i'm guessing this was brought up because of the right's need to live in a black and white world.

unfortunately it was a problem long before transexuals become a reality.


how?

easily

intersexed people don't fit neatly into a black/white world.


things are not always as they appear; nor are they otherwise.


people need to stop trying to control everyone else's business; when it doesn't directly affect them.

people are not objects that you can own.

 

[SkepticThinker]

There may be threads but try saying something they do not agree with and they will shoot you down. No such thing as free speech.

You mean, other people countered your assertions/arguments, as usually occurs on debate forums?

 

[SkepticThinker]

It is not taught in school because now we let people decide what sex they want to be. It is not what is between the legs that counts but what is between the ears.

Sounds like you're confusing sex with gender.

 

[Evangelicalhumanist]

That's right....
A natural Companion of a Man is a woman! Not another man!

Not for me! I am a man, and my natural companion is another man, who I have been with for 3 decades.

It might surprise you to learn that what is natural to you, I am not obliged to find natural to myself. I know, pity you don't have the right to overturn that, but there it is.

 

[SkepticThinker]

The Question was "What is a Woman"?
There can only be one answer... A companion of a Man & The opposite gender to a Man!

I guess my gay female cousin isn't a woman then, since she's married to another woman.
I'll have to call her up and tell her.
Oh yeah and my single friend, not a woman either, as she doesn't have a male companion.
Geez, I'm learning so much!

What is a female?

 

[Kelly of the Phoenix]

Tradition has nothing to do with it.

It does because not everyone has the same traditions.

 

[Kelly of the Phoenix]

That's an interesting point. Could such a person ever be identified medically and biologically on their birth certificate, as the opposite of what the message their organs tells everyone they are.

I think the answer to the question in the OP lies there.

I’d rather birth certificates have the chromosomes instead of a gender you can’t ask the infant about.

 

[Kelly of the Phoenix]

I did not see a goldfish become a shark 50 years ago and I still do not see one today. You are ignoring science.

A trans man didn’t become a man after being born a woman. The brain had male drivers installed in female hardware. The person was always male, because we are not our gonads.

Nemo’s dad would have become Nemo’s mom in reality.

Nearsightedness is natural. Spectacles and contact lenses are artificial.

An interesting analogy.

It does, sometimes, seem to me that there are those who think that if what occurs "naturally" is not within the range of "norms" that they accept, then the individual should do without. Certainly, years ago when we were fighting over homosexuality and same-sex marriage, there were many who claimed that if a man couldn't be attracted to women, then he should simply do without sex and marriage.

I wonder how many of those people would assume, in the same way, that those who have terrible eyesight, naturally caused, simply ought not to be bothered looking at things, or reading?

Don't let your eyes deceive you. Here you think you see a dog(puppy) but listen to it. It is clearly a rooster

 

[Revoltingest]

Why do people always have to define a woman but I don’t see the same thing for men.

Two things I see....
- MTF athletes can have advantages that FTM lack.
- MTF bathroom & locker room users make some
people feel queasy about the possibility that they'll
leer at "real" women/girls.

Are you trying to say something clever? I fear that I am not quite quick enough to catch it.
