> not "woke"

But verbose. You can't be biologically male and otherwise not male. The adjective falsely implies there is another option.

The adverb correctly identifies that it’s more complicated than that.

The fantasy that “biological reality” is anything other than substantially more complicated and messy than a neat dichotomy with perfect alignment across sex characteristics and gender is both wrong and obviously so.

Nothing in medicine or biology is so simple. There’s always a way for the human organism to be more complicated. It keeps me very busy and in a job.
