No Im trying to ask you how am I ignoring female biology

You are all the time insisting that we are creating ovums to fit that male-centric definition of sex about creating gametes. I pointed to you that it is not how female biology work and that we are not actively creating gametes, if ever at all: /s/GCdebatesQT/comments/7uw7/_/tg0t

Only women pregnant with girls ever creating any gametes at all. So up to half of all women, if not more, are never creating any gametes in our lives at all.

I can't understand what can be not clear here.

The fact that ova are only produced once in an individuals lifetime still inherently means that they are produced. So again how am I wrong?

Also the commonly held belief that humans are incapable of forming new egg cells after birth is actually an open question:

So again how am I wrong?

Again, not all women are producing them. Only ones who are pregnant with girls (or as someone mentioned above - during infertility treatment can produce a few for yourself, but require stem cells). So saying that "all women are producing ovums and men are producing sperm" is very male-centric description and very male-centric understanding of biology.
