    So basically according to the definition of what a woman is by The Office for Women, anyone can be a woman. It’s because of idiocy like this that biological women in women’s sport are in danger of becoming an irrelevance. The senator should have asked the panel member whether she was a woman or not, and if so, on what basis did she come to that conclusion. That would have been interesting, unlike the drivel of her response.

    Oh my god! Well I can safely say that I've been a man (i.e. not a woman) all my life and I've had very little instruction on what a woman is apart from a very embarrassing (for the teachers) sex education lesson in primary school back in the early '70s. Despite such brief and limited guidance, I can still confidently report that I am 100% certain as to what/who a woman is and even though I am a fully qualified man (i.e. not a woman), I would happily share the full range of my knowledge of the subject with the Australian Office for Women (free of charge), including those four esteemed members of that agency who appeared to be somewhat confused by the seemingly straightforward question from the *Right Honourable Senator for Tasmania, Claire Chandler.*
    I cannot imagine how those four women (i.e. not men) on that bench could, without shame, face their families at home later in the day after that utterly bizarre performance! I can only guess that the lockdown in Australia has had a particularly unique and severe impact on many people's cognitive function over there.
