I am not sure I understand completely why you believe an anti-harassment
policy is toxic or that having a supportive community is disempowering, but
please feel free to elaborate. I have plenty of time to wait for you to
compose an e-mail if you wish to elaborate further.

As for why you prefer to call a person "female" rather than "woman", even
if they've requested you not because it feels dehumanizing, I simply must
ask - are you or are you not in fact a Ferengi.
