According to the Church of England, there is “no official definition” of a woman.
When responding to a written question about the church’s definition of a woman that was submitted to the General Synod, the church’s legislative body, Dr. Robert Innes, the bishop in Europe, said, “There is no official definition,” The Telegraph reports.
Replying as chairman of the church’s Faith and Order Commission, Innes said the lack of an official definition “reflects the fact that until fairly recently definitions of this kind were thought to be self-evident, as reflected in the marriage liturgy.”

“The LLF project, however, has begun to explore the marriage complexities associated with gender identity and points to the need for additional care and thought to be given in understanding our commonalities and differences as people made in the image of God,” Innes said.
