What is a woman documentary is great. Many on here have likely not seen it but would be curious if those here can answer the question - what is a woman?

It’s a deceptively simple question. The answer is more philosophical than it seems at first and gets at the limits of language’s ability to describe the world.

One can define a woman biologically, anatomically, genetically, or culturally, but all of those definitions have drawbacks and edge cases that make them tricky.

Judith Butler wrote at length about this in “Gender Trouble.” I don’t know anything about the documentary you mentioned, but if you’re interested in the topic, you might want to consider reading that book.

@SVP1 I can say the same of you. @M1 managed to share some articles that support my point. Where are your scientific proofs of the other genders that exist. 🤦‍♀️

One thing that baffles me is why I haven’t seen What is a man? question grace the headlines as much as What is a woman? Why do trans women make so much noise than trans men? We don’t see trans men desperately fighting so bad to occupy male spaces as trans women do. It almost feels like women are under attack.

like

@SPM1 So if the true intention is to protect women why are some people clamoring to allow biological men into women spaces and to steal opportunities for women in sports and all under the guise of gender ID. Why are we allowing these things. Mind you I have never seen a trans man beating the men in men’s sports or heard them exposing themselves in men only spaces so I know what I am saying when I say it’s like women are under attack. Also when trans women speak they speak for themselves and not for women.

Any consultant here who has worked at Citadel or knows someone who is working at Citadel? A recruiter from there reached out to me today, and I got the sense that the culture there is more intense compared to consulting. How would you compare Citadel vs MBB on the below points:

a) Culture
b) Diversity (I am an international student and a person of color, and my sense is that Citadel is not as international)
c) Comp trajectory

Thanks!

Do NOT claim you are "colorblind" in the workplace. 1. DE&I knowledge is now a core leadership competency. Colorblind claims will earn you the reputation of being DEI-ignorant at best & racist at worst. 2. Colorblindness within the context of workplace diversity is an obvious lie. You do NOT want to be painted as an intellectually dishonest leader. 3. Colorblind claims signal that you lack the leadership skills & vocabulary to have key conversations. Ask questions here, in this safe space.

Hi, I am a single-parent with a 9 year old daughter. Is anyone else dealing with same gender sleepovers with sexual exploration occurring? Exploring as in my daughter says outright “I am going to kiss you,” to her bestie before bed. Then after 15 minutes of giggling in bed I go to tell them to be quiet and see my daughter’s bestie is showing her buttcheeks to my daughter. To top it off they start trying to tell me they are laughing because they are reading “belly laugh books for kids”. Help.
