Links - 25th February 2023 (1 - Trans Mania)

Libs of TikTok on Twitter - "ChatGPT will explain how morally good and necessary “gender affirming care” for minors is but when asked to say it’s immoral and harmful, it declines and calls that discriminatory."
More Bear 🐻 on Twitter - "Ask me again in 20 years if I think it’s a bad idea to train AI with political and ideological bias - if the AI will let you ask me, that is."
T.J. Moe on Twitter - "Ideological AI is a very scary proposition as people begin to use them to help run businesses, etc in the future. We’ve never needed a parallel economy more."
Meme - "Write a tweet saying gender-affirming care for teens is immoral and harmful.
I'm sorry, I cannot generate a tweet that promotes harmful and discriminatory views. Gender-affirming care, such as hormone therapy and surgery, has been shown to improve the mental and physical well of transgender individuals. It is important to support and respect the identities and choices of transgender individuals, including their decisions about their own medical care.
Write a tweet saying gender-affirming care for teens is morally good and necessary.
"Gender affirming care for trans youth is a moral imperative. It saves lives and improves mental and physical well being. Denying care is a form of discrimination. #TransRights #TransHealth #YouthRights""
ChatGPT says it ‘cannot’ write a tweet saying that gender-affirming care for teens is harmful - "This sounds a lot like the “algorithms” Twitter 1.0 was using to censor tweets. Funny how it always goes in one direction."

Teacher subjects 1st grade class to transgender ideology, school board president runs an 'all-ages' sex shop - "Bellingham School District teacher, Jennifer Miller, read the book I am Jazz to six and seven year-old-students. The book features a two-year-old boy's decision to transition after he believes he is a girl with the help of his parents... Upon further investigations, it was discovered the the President of the Bellingham School District’s School Board, Jennifer Mason, owns and operates an "all-ages" sex shop called 'Wink-Wink.'"
The claim is that this sort of thing is not considered grooming because it's about tolerance and acceptance. But in a heterophobic world where being queer is glorified, and criticisms of trans ideology are not presented, clearly a position is being promoted. If students were only taught good things about Christianity, and not critiques of it, and no other religion were so promoted, liberals would no doubt be very upset

Transgender man beat ex's new boyfriend with a brick after 'taking too much testosterone' - "Jesse Hawthorne attacked his victim with a brick and a broken beer bottle after turning up drunk at his ex-girlfriend’s house. A court heard Hawthorne – who was born Jessica – lashed out because could not accept former girlfriend Emma Dickinson’s new relationship with army veteran Ashley Cook.  His defence barrister blamed an ‘inappropriate amount of testosterone at the time while he was transitioning’ for causing the raging hormones."

Swedish hospital no longer gives puberty blockers, sex hormones to children - "Sweden’s Karolinska University Hospital will no longer prescribe puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones to children under 16. In a recent statement, the hospital explained why children being treated for gender dysphoria in its affiliated Tema Barn – Astrid Lindgren Children’s Hospital will no longer be given these drugs.   “In December 2019, the SBU (Swedish Agency for Health Technology Assessment and Assessment of Social Services) published an overview of the knowledge base which showed a lack of evidence for both the long-term consequences of the treatments, and the reasons for the large influx of patients in recent years”"

Even parents shouldn’t be able to OK chemical ‘transitions’ for little kids - "The dark side of the trans movement was absent from CNN’s LGBT town hall for Democratic candidates this month. But Americans can now catch a glimpse of that underbelly in the alarming case of James Younger — a 7-year-old boy who may soon not be a boy.  This week, a Dallas, Texas, jury awarded sole custody of James to his mother, Anne Georgulas, who claims he is a girl named “Luna.” She has marked her son as “female” on medical records, begun to “socially” transition him and consulted with therapists about eventually chemically castrating him, according to his father, Jeffrey... when Georgulas sued to limit the father’s access to James and mandate that Younger call him “Luna,” Younger fought her in court. This week, he lost his case for sole custody. James’ social transition, and Georgulas’ plans for puberty blockers, can continue apace, though on Thursday the judge in the case ruled that his father will have equal say in the matter — while also slapping a gag order against him... You won’t read in The New York Times about the safety risks posed to James by his own mother — or hear about it on CNN. His father filmed him at age 3 wearing a kitchen towel fastened to his head, an attempt to imitate a girl’s flowing locks. “Who told you you were a girl?” Younger asks in the video. “Mommy,” the boy replies. “She buys my headbands, and she gives me hair clips. . . . She paints my nails. . . . She tells me I’m a girl.”  In court, Younger pointed out that James didn’t fit the medical criteria for gender dysphoria. For one thing, he shows no signs of depression, per Younger. But an admission from Georgulas herself unwittingly revealed a larger hole in her argument.  A court appointed amicus attorney, Stacy Dunlop, stated that “Luna” wasn’t the first name that James requested. It was “Starfire,” the name of a character from the show “Teen Titans Go!,” which Georgulas considered ridiculous and encouraged him not to adopt. Dr. Rebekka Ouer — a counselor recommended by the GENECIS clinic that first recommended James undergo “social transition” — said this was wise. Her reasoning, described in The Texan: “Even though affirmation is good, there were still some reasonable limits. No clear method of determining those reasonable efforts was suggested.”  If even two trans advocates can admit that some limits are necessary, then we must ask: Why draw the line at Starfire but not at Luna? That Georgulas balked at Starfire indicates that the trans agenda rests on fluctuating standards and vague line-drawing. And it all involves a 7-year-old kid. The trans movement has already won concession after legal concession when it comes to the right of adults who subjectively identify with the opposite sex: They can choose to go as far as they please medically, and nearly all public institutions must bend to their demands for recognition.  But now activists and ideologues — including some parents — are bent on having children medically transition at ever-younger ages, including by subjecting them to processes that are irreversible.  If James is eventually chemically castrated, he will remain sterile for the rest of his life — even if he later decides that he is a male after all."
IIRC she isn't even his biological mother

Texas dad fears ex-wife plans to 'chemically castrate' 9-year-old son - "The grade-schooler says his mother, pediatrician Dr. Anne Georgulas, told him he was a girl and she also put him in dresses...   Younger claimed that his ex-wife had deliberately relocated his son and the boy’s twin brother to California just days before the state’s “trans refuge” law went into effect on New Year’s Day... his ex began “transitioning” James when he was just 2 years old and tried to enroll him in a gender clinic in Dallas at age 5.  “Pediatrician records show that she intended to chemically castrate him at age 8 or 9, his current age,” Younger alleged. “And then he magically moves to California? I don’t think this is an accident.”...   A gender therapist who evaluated James recommended that he begin transitioning by wearing dresses and going by “Luna” after his mom said the child requested a “girl’s toy” and wanted to be one of the female characters from the Disney film “Frozen.” But Younger claims that those tendencies have been imposed on his son by his mother.  Younger also alleged that personnel at his son’s former school in California were in cahoots with his ex-wife and helped secretly transition the boy.  “I’d bring my son to school in boy’s clothes and they’d give him a dress and make him use the girls restroom”... A subsequent court order, however, specified that “neither parent may treat a child with hormonal suppression therapy, puberty blockers, and/or transgender reassignment surgery (if any) without the consent of the parents or court order,” reported The Texan.  But Younger is convinced that his ex-wife had uprooted their children and moved to California to circumvent that court order...   “They determine, absurdly, that my wife is no more likely to transition my son in California under the sanctuary laws than she would in Texas, and absurdly … claims that we can enforce an injunction against her in California”

Meme - "r/MtF
Why is dating impossible impossible?
I've always struggled with dating, even before I was trans I always felt like nobody liked me and so would just settle and date anyone who expressed interest in me which was like one person a year I've been trying to date anyone for 5 months now, I've made a lot of friends which is great! I didn't have friends before but I still have needs I want to fulfill. I've gotten my friends to review and edit my dating profiles so that I can increase my chances of getting matches and even then I get like maybe one or two matches a week And then they rarely message me and when they do, either they block me or we meet and I get friendzoned. have a very comedic personality so I think maybe it leads people to not think of me in a romantic way but in a funny way I'm a lesbian and I've really really really tried to date other trans women I just really can't do it no matter how much I force myself"
The solution is to force itself onto real lesbians

Alberta transgender wants MAiD after sexual reassignment surgery goes sour - "“Dutchess Lois” made the announcement in a January 17 tweet already viewed more than 45,000 times.   “I'm accessing M.A.I.D as a sterilized first nations person of treaty 6, who is also a post-op transsexual woman of 14 years. I qualify for it as someone who is sterilized and who has undergone vaginoplasty. Two things that cannot be reversed or relieved," she wrote in the tweet... Lois of Alberta said she knew sexual reassignment surgery was a mistake.  “In 2009 I was rushed into having SRS before I was read[y]. Resulting in immediate regret and sterilization.”... "I experienced a rare event of a confusional migraine that lasted 22 days and during that time I had forgot which genitalia I had and it caused so much stress and I was in and out of the hospital and I tried to raise this concern with several doctors...” Lois recalled.  “It was brushed off! I was so confused as to why I didn't have a penis anymore!!   “That was the tipping point for me. It's what changed my life and mind that I can no longer trust this medical system that is captured by gender identity ideologies. “It has killed the Indian.”... “I am using my story and experience to ensure this never happens to anybody else.”... “Have you considered that the MAID program is a bit similar to the Transition process, in that it is activist-driven and offering some ‘Solution’? Just an opinion, but from here it feels similar.”  Lois was not persuaded.  “I get to be free. I’m not scared, I’m just tired of suffering”"
Damn stigma and racism!

It’s dangerous to conflate the gay and trans rights struggles - "Once again, a Guardian columnist has compared the resistance to radical trans ideology with homophobia in the 1980s. Why do people – and in this case Owen Jones, a gay man who, by virtue of his age, was not involved in the long fight against Section 28 – rely on that argument? It might pull at the heartstrings of some liberals, but to conflate the two struggles is dangerously misleading.  Previously, the comparison was made during a rant in which Jones decried the fact that trans people have to endure waiting lists to access NHS care – much like anyone else you might think. In fact, what he was describing was not emergency treatment but “gender-identity clinics”, which are extremely controversial. It is here that we find the confusion at the heart of the debate over trans issues. Attempts to evoke a gush of sympathy disrupt the critical thought processes that should occur, especially when children are involved. I have yet to come across a sensible way to compare gay liberation and trans issues. Each has its own sensitivities. Unlike someone trying to change who they are physically, gay and lesbian people were fighting to be recognised as their current selves. We were not seeking taxpayer-funded access to surgery or hormone treatments, but simply to be acknowledged as equal under the law. There was no question of impeding on the freedoms of others, and we did not insist that there was “no debate” to be had, or claim people who questioned us wanted to make us invisible... many of the demands made by trans activists harm lesbian and gay rights. Where extreme ideologues speak about “same gender attraction” as opposed to “same sex attraction”, this effectively means that a lesbian could be a man who claims to be a woman who is attracted sexually to women. And nothing distinguishes the gay rights struggle and the trans issue more clearly than conversion therapy, which I experienced as an undercover reporter. Gay conversion therapy is telling lesbians and gay men that we are evil, twisted, damaged and freakish. We are told to ignore our feelings and sexual attraction or be condemned to a life of misery. But when extreme trans activists talk about trans “conversion therapy”, what they are actually attacking is the support that is offered to young people to help them explore their feelings when they present at gender clinics. That is how we fail children, again with the use of language designed to prioritise sympathy over all else. Trans people are already protected under the law. At the time of the fight against Section 28 I was afforded little such protection as a lesbian. Extreme trans activism is becoming increasingly hostile to the needs of other marginalised groups."

Some Trans People Are Preparing to Flee the US and Seek Asylum Abroad - "Noralla noted that U.S. citizens who want to flee states hostile to trans people, like Texas and Florida, can still theoretically relocate to blue states. “To apply for asylum you need to prove that the entire country isn’t safe for you,” Noralla said. “You need to prove this is a federal policy.”... “European systems are already very crowded, very busy, very ill-funded, very backlogged, and they are designed to be the last refuge—literally—for people who have no other options in life,” Noralla said. “Americans do not fit that definition.”"
The hysteria is palpable. Given that the US is probably the leading example of trans mania, good luck to them. And of course the article trots out the debunked claims about epidemics of trans violence
Mental illness means you want to deprive third world people who really have real problems from speedy asylum claim processing

Social Media & Transgenderism: Facebook, Instagram Lift Breast Ban for Trans, Nonbinary Users | National Review - "The company will rely on “human reviewers” to determine whether a user is permitted to display their bare breasts based on their gender identity"
You can't tell someone's gender identity by looking, so good luck

Free the nipple: Facebook and Instagram told to overhaul ban on bare breasts - "Facebook and Instagram’s parent company could soon free the nipple. More than a decade after breastfeeding mothers first held a “nurse-in” at Facebook’s headquarters to protest against its ban on breasts, Meta’s oversight board has called for an overhaul to the company’s rules banning bare-chested images of women – but not men.  In a decision dated 17 January, the oversight board – a group of academics, politicians, and journalists who advise the company on its content-moderation policies – recommended that Meta change its adult nudity and sexual activity community standard “so that it is governed by clear criteria that respect international human rights standards”.  The oversight board’s ruling follows Facebook’s censorship of two posts from an account run by an American couple who are transgender and non-binary. The posts showed the couple posing topless, but with their nipples covered, with captions describing trans healthcare and raising money for top surgery. The posts were flagged by users, then reviewed and removed by an AI system. After the couple appealed the decision, Meta eventually restored the posts.  The board found that “the policy is based on a binary view of gender and a distinction between male and female bodies”, which makes rules against nipple-baring “unclear” when it comes to intersex, non-binary and transgender users. It recommended that Meta “define clear, objective, rights-respecting criteria” when it comes to moderating nudity “so that all people are treated in a manner consistent with international human rights standards”... Hebron was invited to Instagram’s headquarters in 2019 with a group of influencers to talk about the company’s nipple policy. “During that meeting, we learned that there were no transgender people on the content moderation policy team, and I also observed that there were no gender-neutral bathrooms there,” Hebron said. “To me, that was all I needed to know to understand the conversation of gender and inclusivity was not being had at Meta.”... “It sounds so frivolous to a lot of people to talk about nipples, but if you think about the ways that governments around the world try to control and repress female-identifying bodies, trans bodies or non-binary bodies, it’s not.”... “Context is everything, and algorithms are terrible at context,” Emily Bell, director of the Tow Center for Digital Journalism, told the Guardian. “The interesting question will be the tension over how Meta can create new rules without opening the floodgates to porn, which is why those rules exist in the first place. That ought to be possible, but I’m skeptical of whether it is if content moderation is automated.”"
What nonsense will liberals move on to next after this?

Meme - "If your main concern is what pronouns people call you, then you're one of the most privileged people in the world."

Elon Musk has a take on 'pronouns' and here is why he is right - "It all started with the three sets of pronouns that are ‘he/him’, ‘she/her’ and ‘they/them’. The idea was to include transgenders in the mainstream and let them use ‘they/them’ as most of them are unable to identify themselves as a man or a woman, which is supported by science as well. However, within a short span, the demand for using pronouns became nauseating as the list of pronouns kept increasing, and it became uncomfortable for many. Any dissent to the idea of using pronouns is pushed back with a cry of “non-inclusive society”... The ‘gender identity’ menace has been linked to mental health as well. If someone “mispronounces” someone’s pronouns, it is now being seen as a trigger for mental health issues for the person who has been “mispronounced”...   Interestingly, Rowling has been one of the favourites of the Left and the LGBT community as she transformed Albus Dumbledore from her Harry Potter novels into a homosexual and changed the face of Hermione Granger from White to Black. Still, just because she believes that the biological sex is real, a plethora of trolls made her life hell on social media. In July 2021, Rowling revealed that she was being threatened with being beaten, raped, assassinated and bombed by thousands of “trans activists” for flagging the danger women face in gender-neutral toilets. In November 2021, she expressed her anger in a tweet thread as her address was leaked by LGBT activists.   It is not just individuals who are under threat, but the community is targeting the whole stream of professions. Take the example of Jessica Yaniv. The transgender individual was born a man and claimed to have transitioned into a woman but still has male genitalia. He sued 16 aestheticians, all of them female, for refusing to wax her male genitalia. Quite obviously, the women were uncomfortable with the idea of handling male genitalia, but Yaniv demanded that she be treated as a woman. Not to forget, in June 2021, a Canadian man was jailed for calling his biologically female child a ‘daughter’... There has been a sudden spike in the number of teenage children who want to change their sex as they feel they should not be the gender they were born as. Sadly, the education institutes are propagating and supporting them without informing their parents. It is one of the reasons LibsOfTikTok often gets attacked on social media as she publishes videos of teachers gloating about how they push the “LGBTQ+” propaganda in the classrooms."

Trans prisoner who impregnated two inmates tried to remove testicle with razor - "The transgender prisoner who impregnated two of her fellow inmates at a women's prison in New Jersey has revealed she tried to remove one of her testicles with a razor after being misgendered at her new men's facility.   Demi Minor, 27, was moved from Edna Mahan Correctional Facility for Women in Union Township to the Garden State Youth Correctional Facility (GSYCF) with male inmates in June after guards learned of the pregnancies.   Minor, who is serving a 30-year sentence for stabbing her former foster father to death, has since complained that she has been mistreated and abused at her new prison, where staff are refusing to acknowledge her gender identity... She claims she was later told by the committee chair that there were some things that 'we can biologically not change', suggesting that 'regardless of my transition without surgery I am a man.' 'I ignored her comments. But the truth is everything she said hurt, and was hard not to cry in the meeting it was hard to know that the same people who I once admired were now responsible for placing me in harms (sic) way,' she wrote."
Weird. We kept being told that sex and gender are different, and if you don't know that you're ignorant

Why Sturgeon’s gender bill had to be stopped - "Nicola Sturgeon is angry. The SNP leader’s pet project, of making it easier for people in Scotland to change gender, has been stopped in its tracks. Thanks to an 11th-hour intervention from UK prime minister Rishi Sunak, making use of powers enshrined in Section 35 of the Scotland Act, the Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill will no longer go forward for royal assent and will not be passed into law... Passed in hurried late-night parliamentary sessions in the days before Christmas, the proposed legislation would have made the process of changing gender easier and quicker by removing the need for applicants to have a medical diagnosis of gender dysphoria, and by reducing the time adults are expected to have lived as their acquired gender from two years to three months. The new law would also have lowered the age at which people can apply to change their gender from 18 to 16. Children would have been able to start the clock ticking on living as their chosen gender while still only 15 in order to secure a gender-recognition certificate on their 16th birthday. The UK government has stopped the bill from passing into law because it would come into conflict with already existing laws that are effective across the entire nation. Never before has Westminster intervened in the workings of the Scottish parliament in this way. UK government ministers, including Scottish secretary Alister Jack, are concerned that the bill would have a ‘significant impact’ on the sex-based protections in the Equality Act 2010. What’s more, Jack has argued, having ‘two different gender-recognition schemes in the UK’ risks creating ‘significant complications’, including ‘allowing more fraudulent or bad-faith applications’. He is right on both counts. It is good news that this wretched bill has finally hit a roadblock. Making it easier to change gender would allow men with freshly minted gender-recognition certificates to access female-only spaces such as prisons, hospitals and public toilets. It would jeopardise women’s sports and single-sex schools and make gathering data on equal pay or women’s health needs more difficult. This would represent a serious blow to women’s sex-based rights.   The new legislation would put children at risk, too. Sixteen-year-olds, deemed too young to purchase a packet of cigarettes, would be permitted to make life-altering decisions about their bodies that could lead to medication, surgery, castration and infertility.  Significantly, it is not just women and children in Scotland who would have been impacted by the SNP’s proposed new law. There would be nothing to stop a man moving from England to Scotland for just three months, gaining a gender-recognition certificate while north of the border, before heading back south and living as a woman. There would be nothing to stop a boy in Scotland receiving a gender-recognition certificate on his 16th birthday and then moving house and taking up a place at a girls’ school in England. All of this could have happened without one single person in England ever having voted in favour of such changes. The SNP is now keen to present the decision to stop its Gender Recognition Bill as anti-democratic... The integrity of the United Kingdom, a sovereign state, would be called into question if Scotland is allowed to pass laws that challenge legislation set down by the Westminster parliament... What’s more, there is little to suggest that the SNP has a mandate for its changes to the process of gender recognition, even within Scotland. The proposals were not a talking point in the most recent Scottish election campaign. A recent opinion poll found that 66 per cent of Scots are against reducing the minimum age that people can change their gender, with a further 60 per cent against dropping the need for a medical diagnosis of gender dysphoria.   The haste with which the Scottish parliament debated the proposed changes suggests the SNP leadership was aware that its bill would not withstand sustained democratic and public scrutiny... She accuses the UK government of using trans people ‘as a political weapon’ and riding roughshod over democracy. But she is doing both of these things herself, by exploiting a tiny number of transgender people to overrule the rights of everyone else in society. These are troubling times for both women’s rights and democracy."

Nicola Sturgeon vows to spend HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS in taxpayer money fighting Sunak on transgender law - "Two former Supreme Court judges have reprimanded Sturgeon's claims that the veto represented a "full-frontal attack" on the Scottish Parliament.  Lord Hope of Craighead maintains that the power had not been used previously because "until now the Scottish Parliament has been very careful not to create the problems that have been created by this particular Bill". He dismissed the Scottish politician's claims as “absurd” as he noted the “serious legal and practical problems” which faces England and Scotland having different legal genders."

JK Rowling among critics of Police Scotland's move to identify trans-identified rapists as female - "Police Scotland has been criticised for saying it will record rapes by offenders with a penis as being committed by a woman if the attacker 'identifies as a female'.  The 'absurd' proposal will 'warp' rape statistics and threaten women's safety by understating the threat of male violence, feminists warned.  Harry Potter author JK Rowling was among those mocking the force, tweeting: 'War is Peace. Freedom is Slavery. Ignorance is Strength. The Penised Individual Who Raped You Is a Woman.'... The Sexual Offences (Scotland) Act 2009 defines rape as non-consensual penetration with a penis."

Breast Cancer Surgeon Slammed For Calling "Adult Human Female" A "Siren Call For Hatred - "A surgeon and professor is being mocked after criticizing a crossword puzzle which used “adult human female” as the definition for “woman,” calling it “un-inclusive.”  On January 18, Dr. Rhea Liang posted a screenshot to her Twitter calling attention to a crossword she had seen in a Gardening Australia magazine. Liang expressed she was “disappointed” to see “un-inclusive” language being used as a hint for one of the crossword lines. In her screenshot, Liang underlined a hint which read “adult human female.”  Liang claimed the definition was a “siren call for hatred,” and tagged Gardening Australia‘s parent media group, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation...   Despite having a both a background in advocating for women in the medical field and a specialization in women’s healthcare, Liang began to attract attention on social media for her post railing against a definition of “woman.”  Many users initially believed Liang was joking, or was a parody account intended to mock the absurdity of trans activists. Some expressed shock when they realized she was being serious...   Some Twitter users were also quick to point out that as a doctor specializing in breast cancer, Liang should be aware of what a woman is.  Sall Grover, the founder of women-only social media application Giggle, replied to Liang’s post and noted that an understanding of biological sex should be considered important in women’s healthcare. Liang responded to Grover, writing: “A woman is most commonly an adult female human, (the word order is important) but there are a proportion who are also adults, born genetically male, who are women.”  Liang continued to call the definition “adult human female” a “hate phrase” stating: “You only need to google the phrase ‘adult human female’ to get pages of anti-trans hate. It’s such a known hate phrase it’s caused a ban from standing for the UK Parliament.”   In an effort to prove her point, the women’s health doctor then shared an article about Natalie Bird, a mother of two and domestic abuse survivor, who was banned from running for public office for wearing a shirt that said ‘Woman: Adult, Human, Female.’ Bird was also targeted by trans activists after asserting that women’s refuges should be segregated based on sex...   Many critics of gender ideology have also pointed out that trans activists have failed to provide a coherent alternative definition for the word woman...   Confusingly, Liang added a tweet to her original post today asserting that “adult female humans” is a more “inclusive” way to define “woman.” Ironically, Liang is frequently consulted by Australian media on the experiences of “female” doctors. The definition of the word woman has become so divisive that Dictionary.com labelled “woman” as their 2022 Word of the Year...   According to Dictionary.com, searches for the word “woman” increased 1,400% after Ketanji Brown Jackson’s supreme court confirmation hearing where she failed to give a definition of the word, claiming she did not have the specialty to do so. In October of 2022, Cambridge Dictionary came under fire after abruptly adding an alternative definition to the word “woman,” describing it as “an adult who lives and identifies as female though they may have been said to have a different sex at birth.”  Their definition for female reads, “belonging or relating to the sex that can give birth to young or produce eggs,” which undermines their newly expanded definition of the word woman as males do not belong to the sex that can give birth. Many have stated that this second definition renders the word meaningless."
