If one cannot define what a woman is and works at a position where it will be mandatory to be able to define and distinguish between the two genders, then this person could leave women out of the program and care about males that identify as women, making the whole program meaningless. Just an example.

    I want to suggest that to all such legislation inquiries we should add one simple but very healthy question: "What if I am wrong?", and then listen, please do not interrupt. In other words, we give chance those sitting behind the bench to present their values and leadership qualities by answering the question. If they refuse to answer, they should not be given the right to hold those positions. Of course, we could be more proactive, and let them make public declaration before they are offered those positions. What is a government without people capable of promoting the leadership mindset? Beware, Leadership is about the right qualities, not a position.
