Sorry to start a thread about this, but I’m sure I recently saw a screenshot on Twitter taken from an MN thread in which a poster said that their nurse friend had been required to perform smear tests on TW. Can anyone link to that thread? I would like to share it in a Feminist FB group I am in, if possible. Thanks in advance.

NHS Scotland seem to provide clear information.

What about the one where a nurse reported that they had had to remove TWs from female wards for publicly masturbating?

Hoax.

Sad think is that it’s not a story that you would immediately think ‘100% bullshit’. Now that’s worrying.

It's only a matter of time before it's real.

I think it was a friend-of-a-friend planted story tbh.

Ah ok, thank you. Shame someone would invent something like that.

I’ve seen that on twitter.

It wasn't true.

I thought it was made up?

I guess you could swab inside the faux "vagina" for STDs? You certainly wouldn't be taking samples from the cervix of a person who doesn't have one.

but that would be impossible!
did they mean a TM?
