Alabama's Republican governor Kay Ivey, will sign a new bill that, according to her, answers a simple question: what is a woman?
The bill of the state representative Susan Dubose, R-Leeds and Senator April Weaver, R-alabaster, would adjust the state law to explicitly define “man”, “woman”, “boy”, “girl”, “father” , “Mother”, “man,” woman “and” sex. “
He took the Legislature in Montgomery on Wednesday.
Ivey is expected to sign the bill later on Thursday; Alemar: “In Alabama, a biologist is not needed to answer the question: What is a woman?”
Ketanji Brown Jackson refuses to define the word 'woman'
During the confirmation hearing of the Judge of the Supreme Court Ketanji Brown Jackson, the lawyer told the tennessee Marsha Blackburn senator that he could not define the term “woman.” “In this context, I'm not a biologist,” Brown Jackson said.
“There are only two genres: men and women,” Ivey told Fox News Digital.
“The What's a Woman bill of Representative Susan Dubose and Senator April Weaver now go to my desk. I hope they will register it to encode common sense!”
The law would require the government to collect vital statistics to identify the sex of a person at birth and “eliminate obsolete or unnecessary definitions and make technical and non -substantive reviews to update the existing code language in the current style.”
“For the purposes of state law, a 'woman' is an individual whose biological reproductive system is designed to produce ovules, and a 'male' is an individual whose biological reproductive system is designed to fertilize the ovule of a female”, a Draft the bill published in a governmental site reads.
The woman is not a semantics game, says the lawyer

Alabama House president, Nathaniel Ledbetter, told Fox News Digital on Thursday that Yellowhammer's state is one that “refuses to go back to conservative values of common sense.”
“We believe that boys should play against boys and girls should play against girls. We believe that men don't have to use the girls' bath,” said Ledbetter, Rinsville.
Ledbetter said that every human is made in the image of God and that their gender defines it.
“I am proud that the Chamber has approved the representative Susan Dubose 'What's a Woman Law' and I look forward to Governor Ivey firm,” he said.
The bill has its opponents, including Alabama ACLU.
“We oppose the bill of the Chamber of Representatives 405. The act 'What is a woman' seeks to answer a question that is contextualized by much more than the biological gender norms that this bill seeks to encode,” reads A group statement.

“The bill establishes a strict statement of the definition of a man or a woman who completely eliminates the transgender people of the image. This bill tries to place outdated gender assumptions as a law of law.”
The group added that the legislation will make it difficult for transgender people to live “authentically” life.
The Democrats, including state representatives Barbara Drummond of Mobile and Napoleon Bracy de Pritchard, also opposed the bill to only be scheduled for 10 minutes of debate on the floor.
The Blackburn-Jackson incident and the posterior public debate also led the conservative commentator Matt Walsh to produce a documentary on the matter called “What is a woman?”
When the problem first arose at the Jackson audience, Blackburn said the jurist could not give a “direct response” about “something as fundamental as what a woman” underlines the dangers of progressive education is.
Blackburn suggested that biological male athletes are not allowed to compete against women.
