The law is intended to include women.
A woman is defined in CA law, and the answer I gave is derived from that definition.
Personally, I favor far more liberal gender role freedom, and I prefer it precisely for the reasons given here.
More liberal gender norms would allow for greater personal expression, and covers these cases better.
People simply saying they identify as female is difficult to discern from those willing to game a law to get what could be an attractive board position, or present as a compliant group without actually complying.
Not all trans people fully transition. I never implied they must, or do.
However, the State of CA does require a few things to get that "F" on a drivers license, and those things involve a status change and some material effort to present as female.
Finally, some do feel they are better off staying as they were born. No worries, but doing that does also mean they are not going to be seen as women in the current law either.
All OK. I truly do not care what people do. People need and work best when they are able to be themselves. I much prefer meeting and interacting with the real person anyway.
