Then why was War still a woman? Because afaik, women are still not the main instigators of wars in the world.

NAYRT, but War in the book tells Brian and Wensleydale she can make them fall in love with her, so the idea is that men love War. And I’m pretty sure tv War’s “you’re born in me, you die in me” or whatever the line was, was a really bad sort-of pun: women give birth to boys, and then they grow to men and die (in the little death sense) in women.

Which makes sense in the book but doesn't actually make much practical sense so I don't know why this has to be a requirement for Pollution.

Because War's function as a horseperson/entity is different from Pollution's??

War isn't on the ground level the way Pollution is-- in Pollution's pre-apocalypse background/scenes, Pollution is someone who hits the button that dumps the waste, is blending in and moving from place to place.

War DOES NOT DO THAT. War goes someplace, STANDS OUT, and creates chaos. War is described as beautiful from far away. Not up close.

The horsepersons are not identical in the way they work in the world, so their humanoid appearances don't need to follow the same set of rules as each other-- they are meant to be distinct.

And so it works for me, though certainly not for everyone, given they were already very different from each other in the book, to have one man, one woman, one non-binary humanoid, and one skeleton. The horsepersons were never homogenous.
