I doubt that. If the strategy was to adopt a long term softly, softly approach, to gain the trust and support of local communities so that the really evil ones could be rooted out, and the impressionable younger ones reeducated, I don't think public opinion would have supported it. Political leaders have had the ability, and willingness, to define a woman. It's probably though not your definition. That's what leaders of opinion need to do and why our representatives need to be free to take decisions they consider in our ultimate interest, and not simply deliver what we want. Leaders need to lead. Not to follow. My definition is that human beings with the XX chromosome are female while those with XY are male. What's yours?

OK It's in our interest to not know what a woman is? How does that work then? Removing fear and gathering useful data all makes perfect sense. What doesn't is increasing fear in others and the inappropriate use of it by those with different agendas. I didn't suggest it's not in your interest to know what a woman is. Only that your definitition may not match another.

My definition is that human beings with the XX chromosome are female while those with XY are male. What's yours? I don't have one. I am not an expert in this area. All I know is that the simple biological definition appears to now be insufficient to describe all circumstances. This is an emerging situation, only now in its first phases, and where it ends is uncertain. Whether we need additional classifications is a reasonable question, but the genie is out of the bottle and I don't see it being forced back inside.

Just to be clear, what I meant by that were the comments by Sunak. Which I agree with you look like populist diversionary tactics. I thought we had put that behind us. I am concerned that nothing will actually change but could make things more difficult for the police to get the co-operation needed. Apologies that is my misinterpretation that. Again, for me it is that identification of the problem and use of language to stir up certain sections of society which I fear they will claim as a win however does not contribute towards resolving anything and could develop problems of it's own.
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

I completely agree and welcome your realism.
