I don't claim to know, I just meant to refer to whatever it is that the authors of that TJN statement have in mind.
I just mean it's "your Option" as in you are putting it on the table, so I'd like you to define it. Is it a thing (in which case what kind of thing) or is it a language game, for the purpose of an assumed greater good?Well if the proposal for Option B is not coherent enough for us two to work out what it is maybe we are giving it too much credit for being a coherent idea?

As I said Option A has got a lot going for it in terms of a coherent definition, observable characteristics, explanatory power....

It's a bit like Illicit Financial Flows definition Paddy
The question is does option B put together two sets of people "some women" + "some not women" and call the new category "women" (why? for what end?)... - 10 more replies

well, suppose it's: anyone who self-identifies as a woman. With that definition in hand, is analysis of, or policy recommendations about, women in education, tax, substantially altered if a very small number of those women are what you'd call males?
-
But again, what is it they are identifying as? If woman does not mean person with a female body? What is it?
