I absolutely fucking despise how the word 'biological' has become commonplace when talking about sex and gender, regardless of the context it's being used in. Not only is it super transphobic to call a trans person a 'biological male' or 'biological female', even if you recognise their actual identity, but it's also just gibberish.
Biological just means a living organism. It can also refer to someone's blood relatives though it's only used when that distinction needs to be made. It doesn't mean 'born as'. My biological mother was not born as my mother.
'Biological male' and 'biological female' makes zero fucking sense if you actually know the definition of the word 'biological'. 'Biological sex' is not a fucking thing, because sex is not a living organism, nor is it someone's blood relative. Same goes for 'biological man' or 'biological woman'.
Can allies fucking stop humouring transphobes by using their made-up gibberish to talk about us. In situations where the distinction needs to be made, you use the terms cisgender and transgender. That should give everyone enough context to know that the trans person is trans and the cis person is cis. You don't fucking call a trans woman a 'biological man/male'. You don't fucking call a trans man a 'biological woman/female'.
If you use that language, all you're doing is giving credibility to policies and laws that use that language. And policies and laws that use that language only exist to hurt trans people. Stop fucking using that language to talk about us. It is being used to fucking kill us.
