I prefer asymmetrical women.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 3 points 2 days ago

Not to be confused with assmetrical women (they can use their derrieres to accurately measure things).

[–] realitista@lemmus.org 48 points 3 days ago (5 children)

Not to be "that guy" but I think they are mixing their metaphors here. "Biological weapon" is the comparison they're making, not "biological war" which isn't something I think exists,

So examples like "chemical woman", "woman of mass destruction" work, whereas "total woman" or "guerrilla woman" do not.

[–] abbadon420@sh.itjust.works 52 points 3 days ago (3 children)

I was thinking "biological warfare". Which still doesn't fit all the references, but I'll write it off as "artistic liberty"

[–] Klear@quokk.au 13 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

But that would imply scientific liberty, engineering liberty and, worst of all, AI slop liberty.

I assumed it was "warfare," and for that every example works

It's warfare. The only one that doesn't fit is "of mass destruction"

[–] ieGod@lemmy.zip 5 points 3 days ago

Ah, a shit post enjoyer of refined taste I see.

OOP: warfare
OC1: war and warfare
OC2: weapons

It's not the same and it irks me. Thanks.

[–] CptBread@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Agreed, though for me I'm fine with adding war, it's close enough to warfare.

Woman of mass destruction

My sister in law

[–] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 10 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Woman of ass destruction.

Pegging

[–] prettybunnys@piefed.social 10 points 3 days ago

I think my sister in law probably still qualifies if I know my brother …

[–] thethunderwolf@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 2 days ago (3 children)

this use of the term "biological" is stupid

hrt and surgery are both most certainly "biological"

I think it actually implies the existence of mechanical women, aerodynamic women, thermodynamic women, ceramic women and computer women.

[–] Prikkeres@feddit.nl 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I’d identify as a ballistic woman.

[–] gandalf_der_12te@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

you have a large mass and move at high speeds?

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

It's not the mass, it's the curvature of the curve they are undertaking ...
(I'm guessing, not trying to speak for them)

I've studied womanfare on the frontlines. I can tell you that women never change.

[–] agentshags@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 days ago

I hope they at least change on laundry day!

Woman of mass destruction

Ah, these are rather common. Divorces are their weapon of choice.

More often than not, the man has his post-alimony earnings and net worth rolled back twenty years or more. Most never return to their prior economic level unless they’re young enough to compensate, and then they remain severely behind their peers, as well. Only the truly wealthy men - think $10M of net worth or more, and $250k+ earnings - can bounce back from a divorce like it’s nothing.

Women of mass destruction use anti value attacks

the only time that the concept of "biological woman" matters is when you want to make children. every other time it just plainly doesn't matter.

[–] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 days ago

"Action Stations! Threat priority Anti-Air Women Red!"

Women of conquest.

[–] smuuthbrane@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 days ago

What of the Mother Of All Women??

[–] MolochHorridus@piefed.social 5 points 3 days ago (3 children)

There needs to be more women of mass destruction.
