What is the definition of a woman? Liberals find that question offensive...

Conservative MP asks a scientist to define what a woman is and Liberals lose their minds.

Many of you will have heard of the book and film by Matt Walsh that sought to ask the simple question, what is a woman? Of course, in this day and age, such a simple question comes with liberal complications.

Well, this week, Conservative MP Vincent Ho, Richmond Hill South, asked Canada’s Chief Science Advisor, Mona Nemer, what should have been a simple question.

“What is the definition of a woman?” Ho asked Nemer.

That was too much for Liberal MP John-Paul Danko who represents Hamilton West—Ancaster—Dundas. If you thought my people in The Hammer were smart enough not to elect snowflakes think again.

“Point, point of order. Chair, point of order,” Danko called out.

“It is Pride Month, and understanding Order 18, which prohibits personal attacks, insults, and offensive language. The accusation..” Danko said as committee chair Salma Zahid interrupted to tell him that he was getting into a point of debate.

Now remember, this is a meeting of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Science and Research and one of the committee members is taking issue with an MP asking the country’s Chief Science Officer to define what a woman is.

“I’d ask the member to withdraw his comments,” Danko said. “What is a man or a woman is highly offensive!”

Wait a minute.

Haven’t Liberals spent years telling us to “trust the science” to “follow the science.”

There is a scientific definition of a woman, it is a biological fact. Carney’s Liberals want to ignore that.

Another Liberal loses their collectivist mind…

Ho tried to ask his question again.

“The census asked that question, you know, what is your gender? What is your sex? So I just want to understand what your view is on this,” Ho said.

Before Nemer could begin to answer, another Liberal MP jumped in.

“Point of order, Madam Chair,” said Liberal MP Taleeb Noormohamed of Vancouver.

“The witness is here in her capacities of the Chief Science Advisor. Her opinion on whether, her opinion on any matter as an individual is actually not relevant to her mandate and so if the question is within the scope of her mandate I would be interested if Mr. Ho would reframe the question.”

Providing a definition of a woman is not a matter of opinion, it is a matter of science, of biological fact. Eventually, Nemer was able to answer, though what she said clearly showed she didn’t want to be dragged into a political debate.

“Genetically speaking, we define female as, in the animal kingdom, as someone with 2x chromosome,” Nemer said.

That statement should be as controversial as saying that water is wet. In today’s day and age though, saying that women are women and men are men is an act of defiance.

Don’t you realize that there are trans men and women they will yell!

Sure, that’s an actual fact. It’s also a very small part of the population.

We don’t need to change our language for all women in order to accommodate, but that is what guilt filled Liberals and progressives are asking us to do.

What on earth does it being “pride month” have to do with being able to ask what the definition of a woman is?

This is insanity.

The push to erase women continues…

We can be accepting of each other, sympathetic, empathetic, without having to decide that we need to erase women from our language. Yet, if you follow the trend among progressives, you will note that erasing women from our language is what they are trying to do.

Last week, New York’s Assembly passed a bill that would remove the words mother and father from state legislation and replace them with the words “gestating parent” and “non-gestating parent.” We are essentially relegating women to their biological function and nothing more, but this is something that has been going on for some time.

Ontario moved in this direction in 2016 under former Premier Kathleen Wynne. Her government, can I be so bold as to assume her pronouns, didn’t go that far but did replace mother and father with the generic term parent.

Other jurisdictions including California, Massachusetts, Colorado and others have moved in the same direction.

A woman or a menstruator…

Speaking of reducing women to their biological function and nothing else, there is a push to call people who get a monthly period menstruators. This has shown up in federal literature in Ottawa, the language has been used multiple times in the Commons by government MPs.

I don’t know a single woman who wants to be described in those terms, but so as not to offend trans women, this is where we are headed. Ignore the vast majority of women, reduce them to their biological function and keep pretending that a person with a penis and testicles is just as much of a woman as a “person who menstruates.”

A couple of weeks ago at Queen’s Park, Ontario’s legislature, NDP MP Alexa Gilmour, who is the Shadow Minister for Women’s Social and Economic Opportunity introduced the Menstrual Health Day Act. The goal of the act is to “mandate menstrual products in all workplace bathrooms” which would include men’s bathrooms and to declare May 28 as Menstrual Health Day.

The bill, from the NDP’s Shadow Minister for Women’s Social and Economic Opportunity doesn’t mention women once. It does however speak of “people who menstruate” and the challenges they face several times.

We have a word for “people who menstruate” and I believe it is women.

Enough is enough…

I’m done with this attempt to push women out of the public square, to erase the language around women from our lexicon, to pretend that being a woman is simply a declaration instead of a biological fact.

Accommodating those with genuine gender dysphoria, those who were born men and live as women, does not require erasing all vestiges of women, of femininity, of the fairer sex from our lives and culture.

Women have fought long and hard for an equality that should have been their birth right. Now, in the name of equality, we are once again relegating them to a lower status so that men pretending to be women can feel better about themselves.

In my experience, those who actually transition, don’t try to tear down women to make themselves feel bigger.

That’s what weak men do.

Let’s celebrate women, not try to erase them.
