we may be getting somewhere
@averagejoe1 saidJoe - You're not getting the big picture here, are you? Please allow me to explain:
Not on issue again, McHill? what are we going to do with you? Out with Sonhouse or Handy Andy, are 'ya?
Judge Jackson is extremely well educated and can clearly answer that question but consider her situation. She's sitting in a room with a number of openly hostile republicans who are looking for any excuse on the planet to call her unqualified, even though most of them voted to confirm her nomination to the bench previously. Any answer she gives will give them an opening to call her a partisan hack and start posturing to the press about her lack of judgement - - I shouldn't have to spell this out to you.
@mchill saidOK, well said. But if they don't ask her questions, how can they vote for her? She has a background (won't go into it, look it up, it,.... like Hunter, is all over the internet) that warrants a bit of looking into. Don't be glib, don't act like it is not impt. Check out her thinking on how to deal with pedophiles,,,she talks about their use of computers and such, as it that has anything to do with pedophiles. Uhhh, there were pedophiles before computers.????? Think about it. Her methodology leaves a lot to be desired. Methinks she is a liberal?

I shouldn't have to explain this to you if you are as well-educated and informed as you claim to be.
Yes, your post is correct, that there are 50 people in the room (half the senate) who are scared that she may be a justice, given what they know about her previous cases. Have you googled that ? If you do, you may not be so anxious to have her yourself.
We can stipulate that conservative senators are concerned, just like your contemporaries were concerned about Gorusuch, and that darn religious Amy Barrett. Y'all really didn't like them. So we have to learn to live together on the Forum. We are different. Look up diff in Conservatives and Liberals. Maybe we should do a thread on it.
@averagejoe1 saidGiven society's notion of gender has become more fluid, that judge is right: you can't rigidly define it, unless you want strictly biological definitions of sex, which is different from gender.
What is the end game for you people? Jesus.
The point of the question was to eliminate gender identity and leave only the biological definition of sex.
Besides, SCOTUS (with a conservative majority) already ruled trans people are protected from discrimination under the law:

Most of them voted for her before based on her legal record - Isn't that reason enough to vote for her again?

@averagejoe1 saidPersonally, I think it was a stupid question.
What is the end game for you people? Jesus.
She should have said a female person, but she probably thought it was a trick gotcha question about transgender people and didn't want to offend transgenders.
Do you think they would have asked her what a female was? A female with a vagina. Then it would be "what about post op transgenders?". So silly.

@averagejoe1 saidBecause it’s a stupid fukking question.
What is the end game for you people? Jesus.
Cheap baiting tactics and completely pointless.
They’re talking to an intellectual, well educated WOMAN, and their point is this woke thing they’re trying to make an issue out of.
She’s sitting there thinking: are these retards real?
Can you define the term ‘chair’?
The answer is: go to hell retard, I’m not defining words for you, look up a bloody dictionary if you don’t know.

@averagejoe1 saidIt was obviously a bad faith question and the Judge answered exactly as would be expected. The standard conservative answer is that these definitions are biological, so when there are disputes about the definition don't ask a judge ask a darn biologist. That was her answer.
