Great post. When the SCOTUS nominee said, "I'm not a biologist," that was the answer. It is a topic in the realm of biology, not politics and not law. As a biologist (I was a practicing physician once upon a time) I know the answer. It is a person with two X chromosomes in every nucleated cell.

I'm satisfied with her answer because - intentionally or otherwise - she shared her judicial philosophy in that moment. "I do not know everything, I must consult with experts in their fields to render judgments."

Steven Chowder is really focusing in on all this nuttiness. She made the argument, and the MSM head's are exploding.

Interesting post. Glad I could provide a "rabbit hole" to explore!

May I offer the following? Seems we share a similar mindset towards the divisive lunacy. Yes, what is a woman? First, stupid question for a SCOTUS nominee. But the responses have been equally inane. I'm 66. I think I know by now. The overwhelming majority of women my age that I've dated (I'm a widower) have agreed.

As a budding satirist, I did offer up a picture of Ukraine President Zelensky with the following tagline ...

"What is a woman?" I know a couple of million starry-eyed American birthing persons who have openly drooled over this dude ... and the overwhelming consensus is this is NOT a woman.

Anyway, good stuff. Enjoyed the links. I've written some similar substack spoofs (and some serious topics) on my substack ... jimgeschke.substack.com. Many thanks for a good read. -- Jim
