This was the first time that Skynet was able to send more advanced weapons back in time, as the inability of anything not covered in human flesh to go back in time prevented it, but T-X's hybrid design of a solid endoskeleton with a shapeshifting liquid metal surface enabled this workaround.

Women who engage in female domination typically promote and title themselves under the terms "dominatrix", "mistress", "lady", "madame", " herrin " (German for "mistress") or "goddess".
