As Haertig points out, there is a clearly deliminated, non-sexist referent in the world. What verbal tag describes it?

Greg, just as an FYI, from long ago Greek lessons, hysteros ( ὕστερος ) is usually translated as later or latter and is a comparative form of ὑπὸ (hypo translated as by or under ) in contrast to hystera ( ῠ̔στέρη ) usually translated as womb.
