Unique, as in, all-male.
Political troglodytes who will rely upon, at best, their second-hand experiences on basic health care matters such as pregnancy, pre-natal-care, family planning, women's reproductive cancers and other issues, such as dementia, which current data show falls most heavily on women to write a health care bill with life-and-death consequences.
Not to mention that women live longer than men, with all sorts of implications for health services, research, cost, and so on.

The GOP didn't go the tokenism route, so props for consistency.
And no doubt women's health expert and GOP icon Todd Akin is available to consult.
Also Donald "Locker-Room Talk" Trump.
