The last time, if filled out any kind of medical form -- only one form for everyone, btw -- there was a section that started out, in bold, "IF you a female, please answer the following questions: . . . ."
So what is wrong with continuing that? I don't see how that kind of wording would offend anyone.
Because when you have a supposedly intelligent person being confirmed for the US Supreme Court not knowing what contitutes being Female because she is not a Biologist, how can regular run of the mill citizens answer the question?
And, yes, I realize the incident in the OP is not in the US.

Failed Science class in the 7th grade and then dropped out? Both of 'em?
If as a society there isn't a common knowledge of facts to work from, where does that leave us?
It's a loss to a person who needs blood to survive.
There's a bigger picture here, and considering how much blood this man has donated over his life, it appears it was very important to him to realize he was saving lives.
Until he had to answer whether he was pregnant or not, on a form, and then it wasn't important at all to him.
What was more important to him, as you say, was being "whiney".
When a grown adult man is forced to answer the most idiotic question in order to 'donate' his blood. Not receive a donation..... I bloody well will tell them to go ... themselves! The man is not "not caring" The dumbwit wokes are not caring. They are the ones refusing to accept his donation! They are not being inclusive by excluding the donor and disrespecting him.
Picture a drowning woke person and a bearded man on the shore with a rope and the woker says, "I can only let you save me me if you will declare that you are not pregnant". Now picture the man say "bleep you!" and walk away. Same thing.

I’m thinking if a person is educated enough and knowledgeable to be considered for our supreme court, they should not need to be a biologist to be able to know the definition of a woman. I would hope.
Not sure what you mean by “both of them”. I posted once, about one person.
It’s actually a real problem. These days it might be hard to tell a person’s birth sex. That’s going to be the next question on your health forms.
True. But there are still definitions describing what a female is as opposed to what a male is. And you don’t (or shouldn’t ) need to be a bilogist to know the answer to that question, what is a woman. Or what is a man.
I'm A-. They want my blood. But, everytime they learn that I lived in Germany during their specific timeline, they carry on about "Mad Cow" disease despite how long it has been since I lived there. Fine by me, I hate giving blood. I only gave out of guilt. WA state was the only state that didn't care about my 3 years in Germany.
A+ here, and after my tour in the Balkans, I got the same B.S.
Not my loss. Funny thing they kept notifying me about draws because I have such a "desperately needed" blood type.
Yeah, who thought there would ever be a debate on this subject.
