Regarding Judge Jackson's political side-stepping of defining a woman, have any of the post-17th Amendment, election year Republican Senators mentioned that the Supreme Court established precedent (imo) for recognizing male and female sexes when it decided Minor v. Happersett case against Virginia Minor concerning women's suffrage.

Note that Minor's efforts ultimately led to the ratification of the 19th Amendment.

"19th Amendment:
The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.

Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation."

Yep, the 19th Amendment says sex, NOT gender. How long before trans activists demand it be reworded?
