geex, relax, responding to your 220 about procreation and marriage. If that is the governmental purpose then a fertility test would be in order so those who are sterile don't defeat the governmental purpose and slip into the inner sanctum of legal status.

Right now the definition is very clear, and the governmental purpose is very clear. Your proposed sterility testing muddies the definition. It also has no basis in tradition.
