While I'm all for women serving on boards, I'm not keen on this being a legal mandate. I'll be sure to not incorporate in CA. Furthermore, how do they determine "female"ness?

Uh, the gender the person identifies with. That's all.

Then I hardly see how this law changes anything. Can't one identify one's gender fluidly, sometimes including both at times?

No, legally one can't. One can change their legal gender, but one has to decide.

Ah, of course. Thank you for helping me realize what should have been painfully obvious. (but seriously, though, thank you)
