Wikipedia's article on women starts with this summary,

>A woman is a female human. The term woman is usually reserved for an adult, with the term girl being the usual term for a female child or adolescent. However, the term woman is also sometimes used to identify a female human, regardless of age, as in phrases such as "women's rights". "Woman" may also refer to a person's gender instead of their sex. Women are typically capable of giving birth from puberty until menopause, although some sterile, intersex and/or transgender women cannot. Throughout history women have assumed or been assigned various social roles.

…and to the right, the first person it holds up as an example of being a woman is Laverne Cox.

>Laverne Cox is an American actress, reality television star, television producer, and LGBT advocate,[1][2][3] best known for her portrayal of Sophia Burset on the Netflix television series Orange Is the New Black, for which she became the first openly transgender person to be nominated for an Primetime Emmy Award in the acting category,[4][5] and the first to be nominated for an Emmy Award since composer/musician Angela Morley in 1990.[6]

Cox is listed before Venus, Joan of Arc, Eva Perón, Marie Curie and Indira Gandhi. She replaced Sappho in this position. Nobody outside Kwa even knows who Laverne Cox is.
