Not to be "that guy" but I think they are mixing their metaphors here. "Biological weapon" is the comparison they're making, not "biological war" which isn't something I think exists,
So examples like "chemical woman", "woman of mass destruction" work, whereas "total woman" or "guerrilla woman" do not.
Straight and gay people still feel atracted to those with specific sexual traits, whether natural or artificially developed, so the description is still important for dating. Some people dont care much about gender, but still consider sex important. And of course physicians are rarely interested in gender either when diagnosing medical conditions. What concerns them is biology. So just because transphobes misuse terms to justify discrimination, that doesnt render those terms invalid.
A professional wouldn't actually use the term biological woman though because it's a made up right wing dog whistle and not a real medical term.
Also for like 99%+ of things your physician knowing your agab is completely irrelevant. Hormones change so much stuff like metabolism, bone density, blood proteins, etc so they really don't need to know at all unless you need to see someone for reproductive system specific problems.
Also, transgender people are not abiotic, or fake, or mechanical or whatever. Trans women are biological women and trans men are biological men. Describing someone as biological whatever is really dumb because all humans are biological so it's a completely redundant term.
Humans are all biological but there is an important distinction between sex and gender that i refuse to conflate, as that would be pseudoscientific. Both contribute to what is considered male/female, but one is biological/sexual, and the other is social/cultural. and yes, transwomen can be considered biological woman as well, although this cannot be an exact term, just like gender isnt. So you will never be able to say a person is exclusively one or the other. its just that some aspects of who they are are definitely biological, and some definitely arent. This is not made up. Also the sex you are identified as you are born is not the only factor for treatment. Physicians will definitelly want to know your hormone configuration has been changed because it affects body function in many ways, ultimately changing your sex.
Ah, these are rather common. Divorces are their weapon of choice.
More often than not, the man has his post-alimony earnings and net worth rolled back twenty years or more. Most never return to their prior economic level unless they’re young enough to compensate, and then they remain severely behind their peers, as well. Only the truly wealthy men - think $10M of net worth or more, and $250k+ earnings - can bounce back from a divorce like it’s nothing.

I was thinking "biological warfare". Which still doesn't fit all the references, but I'll write it off as "artistic liberty"
Klear@quokk.au · 13 pts · 131d
But that would imply scientific liberty, engineering liberty and, worst of all, AI slop liberty.
