The 14th amendment doesn't define or determine who is a natural born citizen.

That wasn't the question. The question was regarding the right of women to bequeath their citizenship to their children on an equal basis with men.

In point of fact the term 'natural born citizen' isn't defined anywhere in the Constitution or its Amendments, and never has been.

It doesn't need to be. All we need are readers with actual reading comprehension, along with a knowledge and understanding of historical context.

Article 2, Section one ...

No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President ...

And that is defined, as noted by research I posted above.
