Georgia Republican candidate for U.S. Senate Herschel Walker gave the biblical definition of a woman when asked to define what a woman is at a campaign event. “I know what a woman is. It’s written in the Bible. She’s from the rib of a man,” Walker boldly declared in front of an audience in Cherokee County, Ga.

Despite the fact that many Americans derive from a variety of lands with various creation stories opposing that of walkers, instead of giving a more common or scientific definition of what defines a woman in modernity, Herschel Walker chose to give the biblical definition from the Book of Genesis.

“Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man,” the Judeo-Christian text reads in the second chapter.

In addition, the candidate also promoted anti-transgender views during his campaign speech.

“Men shouldn’t be in women’s sports. That’s easy to know,” Herschel said. “There’s man, and there’s wo-man.” That’s it. There ain’t another. So quit trying to create it.”
