My understanding was that current consensus was that humans with ovaries are born with all of the eggs already created - waiting to be released - and no more are created after that. So you’re either born holding eggs or you ain’t, and intention and capability don’t come into it.
It also excludes women with certain kinds of infertility.
The social/political definition of women should just be believe what people say they are because otherwise you’re creating a genital/dna inspector.
As for the biological definitions, we should teach more people biology. There are like 6 definitions of species so biology has trouble answering “what is a human”

We don’t need biologists to define what a human is, though. We have known since the time of Plato that a human being is a featherless biped with broad flat nails.

But that still doesn’t define “woman” though

That was my “main” premise for lack of a better word, but i agree with what you said :)
