I'm not going to lie, watching cis people near universally accept terms like "biological sex", "biological female", etc without hesitation or questioning in less than a year has me terrified. Like... Are y'all seriously unaware that those terms are dogwhistles?
Watching TERF dogwhistles catch on in common parlance within a year, while every trans person I know is begging for cis people to give a fuck about the rising rhetoric and violence against us, is really a lot.
Even self professed "allies" are using these terms.

If TERF dogwhistles (and by extension, TERF logic) is so much easier for cis people to understand than the actual real life pain and suffering of trans people, I don't know what to do.
"Biological sex", "biological male", etc are terms that only have value to you if you believe "sex" or "male" are insufficient or incomplete descriptors. These terms only have value if you think sex assigned at birth is more important than current sex. That's TERF logic.
