a mix of gender, environment, and biologically speaking, the XX chromosome.
I don't believe a woman is defined simply by what is between her legs. I believe the term "woman" is a subjective term that has been defined by society and cultural norms for what gender roles should entail. If a genetic woman were to have her reproductive organs removed and also a double mascectomy done, would she cease being a "woman"? No, because I believe gender is between the ears and sex is between the legs. I think this is the problem with so many people in truly understanding transsexuals for example. The common person doesn't understand the difference between SEX and GENDER. I believe a lot of what makes "woman" and "man" is defined by cultural norms and roles. Somewhere along the line, we've seemed to think that a "woman" has certain roles and a "man" has certain roles. But, I don't think there's truly boundaries on this, because these roles overlap many times. Women have masculine attributes as well as men have feminine attributes. We, as a society, have put those feminine and masculine attributes into rigid categories, and that's where the problem lies. If a man exhibits anything we have labeled "feminine" then he is outside the norm, and we attach stereotypes to him, whereas if a woman displays that which is considered "masculine" again, we attach stereotypes to her. So..apart from the chromosomes, I really don't think "woman" or "man" can be clearly defined. Have a nice day. :)

Listen to Billy Joel's song "She's Always A Woman To Me".
He sums women up almost perfectly.

Her head rules her heart, and heart rules her head .She can be the most annoying and the sweetest. She can test you to the limit and can stand any test from you. She is a mother , a sister, a friend a lover and the greatest enemy all in one when you need her.
