What is a Woman according to Jess Phillips

"The substantive of women’s rights deeply matters to me. And not taking away the language of women, because I don’t want to – I like it, and I don’t know who’s demanding it. No trans person I’ve ever met has said that we shouldn’t say ‘woman’.”

I absolutely recognise there are two sexes: this is a straightforward fact.

I feel unsafe, in this world and in this country, because of this toxic debate.

What we must do is to not allow a very small percentage of the population to allow us to be distracted, to take away from women's rights.

It's completely unfair that biological males who've passed puberty should be involved in any aspect of women's sport.
