Referring to a male as a "biological male" is like saying "water-immersed swimmer," "cooking chef" or "writing journalist." A swimmer is defined as one moving through the water, a chef is by definition one who cooks, a journalist is one who writes, and male and female are defined by biology. Perhaps if we started using my above examples as a way to describe everything, it would draw more attention to the lunacy that has crept into the language. Since legal repercussions are threatened by not using the babble, play by their rules and drown them in their own nastiness.

You are using logic. logic doesn’t work on a cult...neither does truth. A cult makes its own rules and those are rarely logical or truthful!

All true, but cults don't like it when their own rules are used against them.

Imagine time traveling back to, say, 2010, and telling people that in the near future you will be suspended from athletic competitions for referring to adult humans with penises and testicles as "males." Who would believe you? Yet here we are. What obvious facts about reality will they be compelling us to deny in a decade from now? In two? Will there ever be a breaking point? What could it possibly be?
