Jenni Murray: What is the point of women in Parliament if they're too scared to say what a woman is?

Good question, Jenni.

She has written a blistering piece in the Daily Mail expressing her bafflement at the Dodds, Cooper, Sturgeon trio and hands them a lesson in history of women's struggle: "Why then do female politicians, who owe their place in the corridors of power thanks to the efforts of thousands of women who campaigned for their rights, appear unable to define what and who they are?"

There's also an amusing coda to the piece, in which various female writers give their definition of what a woman is.

Who shall answer Jenni's question and call to arms? Not those three, nor her old radio programme either.

"How did I do on the definition front?"

If you're in the wrong body you should probably get the real owner's permission before you start chopping bits off and taking life-altering drugs.

It is all such bullshit. If you put a woman from every country in the world in a room and we were all able to communicate with each other, the only thing we'd all have in common is our biology. You could do this with every woman throughout history from Queen to peasant. All we have in common is our biology. Personally, I think it's amazing and beautiful that I have this connection with every woman in the world.
