      On the contrary, I am supposing that intersex and other non-binary, divergent sexual individuals who, one way or the other, depend on the estrogens and such hormones will find that their bodies (their brains) are expecting the AFAB/female cycles and details, and then they’ll live the same experience of high cortisol while fasting, the hormonal changes, etc. That’s why I prefer to call it a “female biology” and not “women’s” because there’s probably in here someone who has that body, that sex, but not that gender identity. Also, I’m not a doctor so I don’t know for sure about intersex and trans bodies, but I doubt science knows a lot more, TBH. We’ll have to wait for science to research bodies inclusively.
