Not any mammals as far as I know, but it would help your case when arguing biology if you apply the most accurate phrasing possible.
No idea if you knew it was possible in other animals or not, just pointing it out.
There’s another thing that needs pointing out.
Biologically, a female labeling is based on a set of traits, with the word being defined by those traits.
Socially a female is a term defined by usage and tradition. Currently, female is indeed the term for any animal that is sexually dimorphic and matches a set of traits. But a woman is defined by a set of traits, that includes the traits of a female human, but also includes other traits.
So, both cis and trans women are women.
Deathmonger@lemmings.worldto Ye Power Trippin' Bastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com•lemmy.blahaj.zone defederates feddit.uk71·19 days agoWell, transparency only matters on blahaj.
And making a post warning users of blahaj is transparency. It’s coming to users and saying : here is an administrative decision being made, here is the rationale behind that decision.
There’s no need to link, copy, or otherwise bring up the original comment when the decision is based on the choices of other instances. It would be nice yeah, but not mandatory for transparency.

Deathmonger@lemmings.worldto Ye Power Trippin' Bastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com•lemmy.blahaj.zone defederates feddit.uk22·19 days agoYou know, you keep saying the same thing over and over. You never respond to their point, or anyone else’s, you just pound away at your pulpit.
That’s not engaging in good faith, it’s soapboxing
Ho-lee-shit!
