Cambridge Dictionary changes definition of 'man' and 'woman': '1984 wasn't supposed to be a how-to manual'
One commentator argued the Cambridge Dictionary is 'ceding linguistic territory to the radical Left'

Cambridge Dictionary is being criticized by conservatives on social media for altering the definitions of the words "man" and "woman" to include people who identify as a gender other than their biological sex.

The definition of woman, which previously represented the longstanding view on sex, now states that a woman is "an adult who lives and identifies as female though they may have been said to have a different sex at birth."

Similarly, a man is now defined as "an adult who lives and identifies as male though they may have been said to have a different sex at birth."

This change was met with pushback from many, who argued that redefining society's categorization of gender and sex is harmful and inaccurate.
