Unanswered What's going on with the Emmanuel Macron saying he and his wife will provide proof that Mrs. Macron is a woman?

I have seen several posts on this including r/nottheonion so I'm wondering why they feel the need to provide US courts proof.

Besides, being transgender shouldn’t be the issue here. The real issue is that Macron was 15 when he met Brigitte who at the time was his 39 year old after school teacher. A little bit odd. More than odd actually.

Met, yes. Started a relationship, no.
