Debating what is a woman on his show

That lady speaking up at first did very well. Of course the gooney bearded man had to stand up and try and mansplain to the woman what a woman is. Sigh.

Idk why this woman's opinion is so polarizing to some. Even if you don't personally agree with her, you can see where she's coming from. Because, even if you consider gender a construct, biological women still face a greater threat of sexual violence from biological men, so if born-women feel threatened or uncomfortable with sharing women's only spaces with born-males, their feelings should be acknowledged because statistical data supports their feelings. And because the reverse is not true, however much sympathy you might feel for a transgender woman, who also experiences the threat of danger from biological men, their biological sex privileges them from experiencing the reverse, in that they do not experience that same threat from biological women.
