I was watching when she was asked this question.. I think this lady is far more Left than she's been portraying herself
I think she wouldn't answer the question with an obvious, common sense, biological answer because she supports this gender fluid, tranny, men can be women, visa-versa bullshit that's become a major thing with the left wingnuts .. So she answers "I don't know" so as not to alienate them .. STOOPID answer to a simple question

If Ketanji Brown Jackson Doesn’t Know What A ‘Woman’ Is, Why Does She Use The Word So Much? BY: ELLE REYNOLDS MARCH 23, 2022
Repeatedly using a word she says she ‘can’t’ define is not a good look for a potential Supreme Court justice.
Joe Biden’s recent Supreme Court nominee Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, whom the president has admitted was nominated in part because she is a woman, stunned listeners on Tuesday when she refused to give a definition of what a woman is.
“I can’t. … I’m not a biologist,” Jackson said after Republican Sen. Marsha Blackburn asked her to provide a definition of the word “woman.”
But for not knowing what a “woman” is, Jackson loves to use the word. Here are 14 times she invokes the fairer sex in just the first two days of her confirmation hearings, plus 34 times she’s used the word in her legal opinions as a judge (emphasis ours).
KBJ Referenced Women 14 Times in First Two Days of Hearings
In her opening statement on day one of her confirmation hearings, Jackson opined that “I stand on the shoulders of so many who have come before me, including Judge Constance Baker Motley, who was the first African-American woman to be appointed to the bench.”
On day two, Jackson couldn’t talk about the Supreme Court’s precedent on abortion without referencing women.
“Roe and Casey are the settled law of the Supreme Court concerning the right to terminate a woman’s pregnancy,” she said.
“After Casey, the court has determined not so much that the right to terminate a woman’s pregnancy is fundamental,” she continued. “The right exists and it’s subject to the framework in Casey that allows for regulation.”
She also mentioned a female witness in a case related to child sex crimes, an area of law where she has been accused of handing down light sentences to child pornography offenders.
“I somehow still have nightmares about the main witness, the woman I mentioned earlier,” Jackson said, demonstrating her ability to identify the woman’s sex.
She’s also invoked the concept of womanhood to pat herself on the back for being nominated.
“I am humbled and honored to have the opportunity to serve in this capacity and to be the first and only black woman to serve on the United States Supreme Court,” she said.
And again: “Because I am a woman, because I am a black woman, all of those things people have said have been really meaningful to them.”
Yet again: “Having meaningful numbers of women and people of color, I think matters.”
And then three times in the same sentence: “I gave a speech about black women in the civil rights movement, most of the speech if not all of the speech was focused on African American women, their contributions to the civil rights movement, unsung contributions in many cases, and then some of the more recent African American women who have made claims, who have done things in our society.”
She even acknowledged not just the existence of women, but the existence of men. “We believe that we have a government of laws and not men,” she told senators. “And yet there are men and women who are acting as judges in the context of our system.”
When she spoke of her own motherhood and her own daughters, she tacitly admitted the strong connection that the telos of motherhood has to womanhood. “I know so many young women, in this country especially, who have small kids who have these momentous events and have to make a choice,” she said of balancing career obligations with children’s schedules.
And after Blackburn questioned Jackson about an opinion she’d signed referring to pro-lifers as “a hostile, noisy crowd of ‘in-your-face’ protesters,” Jackson referred to “women who wanted to enter [abortion] clinics” in her response. That opinion made five more references to a “woman” or “women.”
But that’s not the only document in Jackson’s legal record where she used the terms “woman” and “women” and assumed there will be no confusion about what she meant.
34-Plus Mentions of ‘Woman’ or ‘Women’ in Judicial Opinions
In her opinion in the case Policy & Research, LLC v. U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, Jackson referenced “programs that seek to decrease the prevalence of teen pregnancy among eighteen- and nineteen-year-old African American and Latina women.”
She used the word “woman” four times and the word “women” twice in Azadeh v. Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran. In James v. United States, she wrote “woman” 11 times.
In City & County of San Francisco v. Azar, Jackson referred to “pregnant women,” “the relationship between physicians and women seeking the abortion,” “the obstacles women have in asserting their right to an abortion,” “women seeking abortions,” and “a woman seeking an emergency abortion,” in addition to stating that “women generally cannot safely secure abortions without the aid of physicians.”
In Garcia v. Roberts, she wrote about the “manner that bar admission rules in the nineteenth century unlawfully discriminated against women and African–American applicants.”
“Plaintiff Bukola Alibalogun (‘Alibalogun’) is a woman of African descent,” she said in Alibalogun v. First Coast Security Solutions, Inc.
She introduced a plaintiff similarly in Perry v. Colvin: “Plaintiff, Janell Perry, is a 46-year old woman residing in Washington, DC.”
In Beshir v. Jewell, she explained “Shirlean Beshir (‘Beshir’ or ‘Plaintiff’) is an African–American woman who was fifty-one years of age during the summer and fall of 2007.”
And in Austin-Spearman v. AARP & AARP Services Inc.: “Plaintiff Ethel Austin–Spearman is an internet savvy woman.”
Again, in Lawson v. Sessions: “Sheila Lawson is an African–American woman who began her employment as a Special Agent (‘SA’) with the FBI on October 15, 1995.”
In her description of plaintiff Geraldine Campfield in Campfield v. Commissioner of Social Security, Jackson wrote, “At the time of the alleged onset of her disability, Plaintiff was a 51-year-old woman.”
In United States v. Georgieff, she noted that defendant Jordan Georgieff had “married a second woman, Dariana Borisova,” while still married to his former wife.
Jackson repeatedly referred to “woman-owned small businesses” in her opinion in Rothe Development, Inc. v. Department of Defense.
In United States v. Hillie, a child pornography case, the judge wrote that “Charles Hillie (who was born in November of 1983) became romantically involved with a woman.”
Repeatedly using a word she says she “can’t” define is not a good look for a potential Supreme Court justice. Blackburn should ask Jackson: What did you mean by “woman” all of those times you said and wrote it?

I don't care if anyone wants to identify as man, woman, unicorn, or pineapple.
This identity politics and culture war bullshit is just a distraction from the real questions like is the nominee a corporatist and imperialist who will continue to dismantle 'Murican "democracy" in the names of profit margins and global hegemony?
Fuck the dumb shit. I want to know if the nominee is an establishment stooge.
(Spoiler: of course she is, or she wouldn't have been nominated)

Actually i don't either, but i refuse to participate in the freak show and pretend they're a different gender than they really are and try to figure out whatever pronouns they've made up for themselves on any given day
...And it *does* matter a lot to a lotta people ..like all the girls in the recent swimming race that lost to a man that decided to identify as a woman .. Same shit happening in track and field sports ...not so much in contact sports, since a man (identifying as a woman) crushed a woman's fucking skull in a MMA match ... You know there're no more boy scouts? ..Now it's just 'scouts' .. Very "progressive"
Men and women are *different* .. You cannot blur or eliminate the line between the two, which is what they're attempting .. Sooner or later these stupid cases will make it to the SCOTUS. .. That's why it matters that this nominee wouldn't answer the question

People who want to dictate how other people live just love a good horror story about the time a thing went badly so they can paint an entire issue with that very narrow brush.
Meh.
Don't want people who were born with penises competing in women's sports? Pass a fucking rule against it. Problem solved. Don't like that the scouts don't include genders in their name anymore? Don't send your kids to their meetings. Problem solved.
Not that it matters but as a former scout I can state without qualification that no fucks are being given that they're just "scouts" now. Zero. Zilch.
But then again I'm not one of those people who make other people's business my business just because I feel a super duper way about stuff they're doing has fuckall to do with me.
Humans really are the worst animals.

People/the world has been fine and adapted to the *fact* that men are men and women are women .. The tranies and such are the ones trying to dictate how others live, by injecting themselves into mainstream societies and demanding everyone accept them and their "new way of life" .. "Progressive" if you will
Men competing in women's sports, getting trophies, breaking records, is not an isolated incident .. It's happening more and more ... You can support that .. I don't If you have a dick you are not a woman ..there are multiple biological differences between men and women
Men cannot menstrate ..Men cannot get pregnant .. I don't accept that they can .. I'm entitled to my views and opinions on this matter and I'll express them here, there, anywhere i get the notion

Me? .. I can't pass any such rules .. The woman who is the subject of this thread, nominated for the SCOTUS can pass such a rule, which is why i bring up the subject

It's not only the *name* thats changed .. In case you're not aware, the girl scouts have " meshed" with the boy scouts, so it's no longer boy scouts

I don't need to feel a "super duper way about stuff" to post the shit here or anywhere i want..along with my fucking opinion(s) .. Don't try to tell my it's none of my fucking business .. It's anybody's business who cares to comment on it .. There doesn't need to be any personal involvement in this or anything else to post on any issue and comment on it ..AFAIC the nominated SCOTUS is a valid issue to comment on with whatever the fuck i want ...has fuckall to do with you? ...*shrug* ..don't squawk about what's posted about it

I didn't bother once i saw you're suggesting clips of Jimmy Kimmel are of any worth .. Only stooges like you base their opinions on late night TV buffoons
I didn't waste my time on that either .. I rarely bother with the clips from the twitter mobs .. But as far as your comment of overkill of beyond stupid shit, I'll just refer back to the complete psychotic mental breakdown of the democrats during their ridiculous attempts to generate public outrage with fabricated tales and witnesses of 40 year old druggings and gang rapes supposedly committed by then nominated SCOTUS, Kavanaugh.
Not only did they attempt to prevent his confirmation, but they tried to completely destroy the man's life .. Talk about overkill and beyond stupid shit

This Rolling Stone journalist embarrassed himself confronting Crowder on one of the "Change My Mind" debates about men competing in women's sports then goes on twitter and claims 'victory' ... Typical of these left wingnuts

Here is a ''what is a woman- Trump supporters woman(s)
4-2-2022
Trump supporter claims Space Force will overturn the election — and there are 269,000 sealed indictments.
Supporters of Donald Trump are voicing insane conspiracy theories ahead of his Saturday rally in Michigan.
The "opening prayer" for the rally was delivered by a conspiracy theorist who falsely claimed Trump is the "current" president of the United States.
One Trump supporter interviewed by Right Side Broadcasting Network said that the Space Force is part of efforts to return Trump to power in a bizarre QAnon rant caught on camera.
"The election, I believe, was stolen," said a woman with an America flag draped over her shoulders.
"But we know that, Space Force has it all, Trump has all the information, it's going to be overturned," the woman claimed.
"What do you think Space Force has?" the interviewer asked.
"Space Force is a military branch, you know, just like the Army, you know, all the military. And they literally...the night of the election they literally watched the election be stolen. They watermarked the ballots, they know exactly what happened with every ballot," she said. "They know what countries were involved, they followed the money, they know what every every politician that's been paid off."
"There was 260,00 — 269,000 sealed indictments, but I think it might even be up to 500,000 sealed indictments. And I believe that we're going to have an emergency broadcast and the military is going to come in with martial law and we're going to be shown, 8-hours on, 8-hours off, of videos for seven days — the world.
And they're going to be showing us taped tribunals, taped confessions, and the world is going to be awakened to what's really going on with the deep state," she claimed. Watch-- A trump woman- https://twitter.com/i/status/1510333810365378565

Fukkin idiot .. You don't have enough anti Trump threads on this board that you need hijack other threads with it?
Normally it would go without saying that your recent blather is completely irrelevant to anything in this thread, but you're not -normal- at all are ya<?> .. You can't understand "normal" or even general common sense .. Everything in your mind gets reduced to your hatred of Trump and your fear that he might be elected president again or that he won't be locked up where you'll feel safe from his haunting of your mind

Happy School Librarian Day!!!
On April 4th each year, National School Librarian Day recognizes the professionals who keep the school library in working order. School librarians spend long hours keeping the library organized. They are also dedicated to helping our children find the resources they need to keep learning. School librarians are the people who create an environment where students can learn every day of the year. Their work is an impressive accomplishment.
