  Cease your investigations! The conservative mind can not understand nuance. Only binary, like a primitive computer.

  You need to think less like an empathetic human, and more like a narcissist — a robot — else you’ll find yourself in a gulag like the treat of the radical left.

  Yes. And probably. The end goal is for trans people or anyone who doesn’t neatly fit the binary to be harassed into the closet.

  I don’t get where do they see the accomplishment in defining “woman” as “biological woman”

  It just seems like a mental-gymnastic pseudo-intellectual way of just saying “female”. It’s a weird coping mechanism to try and handle the idea that a feminine gender (woman) doesn’t have to match to a biological sex category (female). And yes, you’re right, biology is complex and doesn’t just have two neat sex categories.
