>>98877991It's just an idiotic American thing. Like how they started saying "woman [insert profession]" instead of "female [insert profession]" because they thought female implied biological essentialism. Not in a trans discourse way either, but in a way that they though it meant women weren't treated like humans, because the default was male.
In reality woman just means female human and both woman and female are just socially constructed words to describe a concepts. Some people make appeals to chromosomes, but that's never how it's actually used, and chromosome tests aren't used to assign people into any groups. Even physical development is primarily driven by hormones and their downstream effects rather than gametes and chromosomes. So, a vtuber agency wouldn't administer a chromosome test or require medical tests, except they might still block trans people but not people with androgen insensitivity syndromes. Anyway, Americans are retarded and all sides circle jerk each other with bad faith arguments over definitions, it's best to just ignore them.
