I know much of the commentary around the Olympic a boxing thing is well meaning, but please avoid using or boosting the term “biological woman”.

“Cis woman” is more accurate. “Biological woman” is meaningless. Which bit of someone’s biology do you mean? Hormones, primary sex characteristics, secondary sex characteristics, chromosomes? (Bear in mind most people don’t know what their chromosomes are)

The term comes from transphobic efforts to other trans women and has no other value.
