Who is a Woman? That is a question that has plagued humanity since the dawn of civilization, and probably for a lot longer. So while i don't intend to say the final word on the question, and doubt that that will be done for a long long time yet, i do propose my idea for discusion and testing. The basic Idea: As it has proven impossible to find any one criteria to define who is a woman, i propose that if there where a list of social, biological, mental and genetic criteria, it would be possible to say that if any particular person qualified in a certain number of these criteria, they would qualify as a woman. As i allready wrote quite a lot about this in my diary, i'm not going to expand on the idea right now, but start writing up a list of criteria. Do you have breast? Well, i got one reply so far, from my sister. Here is what she wrote: concerning xx and can you bear children: how would i know? i would ask:
do you intend to bear children? or something like that. I'll be submitting this list to antijen one of these days, perhaps right now, and hope that will generate some more responses. In the form below is still working, so feel free to post your own opinions.

Well, this is the list so far. I would be very interested in any comments you might have on this idea, and particularly any further criteria that you would like to see added to this list. For your convenience (and my fun) i have created this little form... Basicaly all info is voluntary, but it is nice to know who submitted a comment, and if you would like me to get back to you about your ideas then of course an e-mail adress would be very useful. |
