Watch: President of National Women’s Law Center Declines to Define What a Woman Is

The question of what the definition of a woman is has been a hot topic in recent months.

During a House hearing on Wednesday, Rep. Andrew Clyde (R-Ga.) decided to ask Fatima Goss Grave, the president of the National Women’s Law Center, if she could provide the definition.

“Since you’re the president of the National Women’s Law Center, I was hoping that you could define what a woman is for us,” Clyde said.

However, Goss Graves did not elect to share a definition.

Instead, she said, “As the president of the National Women’s Law Center, you can imagine I say woman a lot in my day job.”

“OK, so I’m just asking for the definition,” Clyde interjected.

However, Goss Graves said, “What I’ll tell you is, I am a woman. That’s how I identify. But I wonder, however, if in part the reason that you’re asking the question is that you’re trying to suggest that…”

“I’m simply asking the question and I simply want an answer,” the Congressman said.

Goss Graves pressed on, “I think it’s actually really important to be very clear here that there are people who identify as nonbinary. I think about 5% of young people… who can be pregnant.”

However, Clyde interjected again as he said, “OK, alright, we’re not gonna go there. I was hoping that maybe you would say something that maybe we learned in high school biology that has to do with X and Y chromosomes which define male and female but I guess we’re not going to get there.”
