    I mean I don't care about the gender of my government officials, I just want them to be good at their jobs.

    But since they're not, and since cabinets these days are filled with the PM's cronies and not experts at the top of their fields.... then heck, why not make half of them female

    50% trans women, 50% trans men. It’s not a good system of government, but it would be a refreshing change, and technically meets their requirement without making them remotely happy.
