Yes. And one of the implications they are sarcastically trying to make with the chicken is that the other person would say an animal (or at least a chicken) can't be a woman just because it lays eggs, in contrast to their previous statement defining what a woman is.

I agree a chicken isn't a woman just because it lays eggs. But is there any other reason why a chicken couldn't be a woman?

Because only people can be men and women.

Our sexes are called female/male, so a chicken which has no concept of gender but is of the female sex would be called a hen or described as female.

But what about dogs and cats that think they're people? Won't you think of the kittens? Won't somebody PLEASE think of the kittens?

Don't be silly, dogs and cats can never be men or women, they're only good boys and good girls.

... Generally speaking, we define a woman as a human.
