WASHINGTON (LifeSiteNews) — Judge Ketanji Jackson, President Joe Biden’s nominee for the Supreme Court, said that she is not able to provide a definition of what a woman is.
“Can you provide a definition for the word woman?” Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) asked the Harvard-educated federal judge during the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Tuesday.
“Can I provide a definition? No. I can’t,” the judge said.
“You can’t?” Senator Blackburn asked.
“Not in this context, I’m not a biologist,” the nominee said.
“So you believe that the meaning of the word woman is so unclear and controversial that you cannot give me a definition?” Blackburn asked.

Blackburn also asked the nominee about “physical differences between men and women,” citing the late liberal Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s words in a Supreme Court case about the previously male-only Virginia Military Institute.
Blackburn brought up the “dangers of progressive education” and referenced how a gender-confused man named William “Lia” Thomas won a female NCAA swimming championship.
