"Female" is a sex that we were before we were human. "Woman" is a age-species-sex complex (adult-human-female) that exists apart from cultural attitudes about women and is unrelated to how the woman looks.

"Handmaid" is a gender defined by legal rights and social status, that is not coterminous with the biological category of woman. This has been a demonstration of the difference between sex and gender.

They have redefined "woman" as a gender which includes all adult human females and some males. Adult human females, a group which is exclusive of all males, and is not a social gender, have been redefined as 'ciswomen,' which we are told is just another social gender. Adult female humans have no rights, no status, and no word.

Did you vote for this?

We have to keep rejecting the cis prefix. I say I don't have a gender, therefore I can't be cis or trans.

I am an adult human female. I belong to a biological sex group - female. I have XX chromosomes (I assume! No-one has ever told me I haven't.) I am a woman. As a woman, I identify with all other biological women. I do not need any further designation, such as 'cis', as women are not a subset in their own sex class. No man can ever be a woman. The people who are trying to force women to agree to this and abandon their own identity are doing great harm. I did not vote for this and I do not consent.
