If you're not running a positronic neural network then you're a biological woman

Are you saying Data isn't a man? Because he's-

Which just makes this whole thing even more nonsensical and confusing since androids don't have the need to expel waste the way humans do, and thus would not need to use a restroom.

Technically, that would depend on what would power the android. An android that gets energy from processing human food would work pretty well and there is sci-fi precedent for it- androids in the Aliens films eat food.

That said, I would hope they would have a more efficient way to get rid of that food waste than humans, so maybe they wouldn't need bathrooms.

Maybe they can recycle the raw material like a replicator can recycle raw material.

yknow its funny, because if you really wanted to, you could argue that the very pretense of being trans is a biological factor, since there must be something beyond what is just "social norms and rules" determing gender. Such that trans people are technically, biological women.

Just not physically. So the correct way to write this would actually be "women determined to be such as by the definition of the classical physical definition, plus the correspondingly accurate neurotypical construction that tends to align with the concept of a woman more broadly"

just rolls right off of the tongue.

Oh irrational fear and tribalistic othering, is there no asinine bullshit you won't stoop to, repeatedly?

Biological cripples?
