From a biological perspective, this question has been answered already as it's really not that hard.

Many people apparently just don't like the answer.

That's female, not woman, but it was a nice try

My understanding was that current consensus was that humans with ovaries are born with all of the eggs already created - waiting to be released - and no more are created after that. So you're either born holding eggs or you ain't, and intention and capability don't come into it.

But that still doesn't define "woman" though

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 week ago (2 children)

It also excludes women with certain kinds of infertility.

The social/political definition of women should just be believe what people say they are because otherwise you're creating a genital/dna inspector.

As for the biological definitions, we should teach more people biology. There are like 6 definitions of species so biology has trouble answering "what is a human"

We don't need biologists to define what a human is, though. We have known since the time of Plato that a human being is a featherless biped with broad flat nails.

That was my "main" premise for lack of a better word, but i agree with what you said :)

A woman is one of those things where know you one when you see one. Doesn't have to be any more complex than that.

Like Jiminy Cricket said, "Let your conscience be your guide"

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That's what I initially thought, too, but there are people who identify as a woman who 100% look like a man to me. It's rare, but it does happen, and I'm not going to argue with them about it.

If you say you're a woman, then you're a woman, and it shouldn't be any more complex than that.

In this economy?

There's gotta be at least six figures worth of eggs in this photo

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

4 x 3 containing 30 eggs = 360 x 6 layers per pallet = 2160 x 4 pallets = 8640 / 12 per dz = 720 dozen eggs x $5 a dz = $3600. Considering these are brown eggs, they may be selling as free range organic bullshit for like $10 / dz so maybe $7200.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

So it's six figures if you include the places after the decimal then ;-)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Or if you sell eggs for $140 / dozen.

And to think I was upset about my eggs costing about $3.50 / dozen with treats included. Oh well, the little raptors are fun.

Nothing makes a joke funnier than using math to poke holes in it lol

Look man I know that my taxonomy doesn't work... but have you considered that it was created with the intent to work?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They said "without excluding" not "without including"

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Oh, believe me, they don't want this egg selling man to be called a woman.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I know, but that's on them. They should've been more specific.

Do republicans think we're gineapigs? Born completely formed with no developmental years?

[–] [email protected] 41 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I'm having trouble finding anyone born with intention. Neither biology nor evolution have plans or intentions. We are fundamentally lipid based sacks of water.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They're arguing from a religious perspective that understands God as providing intentionality

The concept is worthless because its hard to define

A woman is when a guy crosses the line. You say "Wo! Man!"

Ah, I can see Diogenes has made an impact on people.

That man is moments away from financial disaster

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

I once dropped 6 eggs while working and cried

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago

That man is 100% in Germany. He's fine.
